Album Review | Under the Pier | Puff Pieces

Under the Pier are stoking the coals of the mathcore funeral pyre into a new and hungry inferno with their debut LP.

Infant Island paint ugly truths with vibrant colors on their latest LP.

WVRM’s riffs got me leaning into the crowbar right as it connects with my skull.

IDES break every single rule of punk and hardcore on their new LP, and it’s damn magnificent.

Haunted by Cruelty sounds like the soundtrack to an army of demons marching towards heaven, ready to pull the angels down into the abyss.

Members of The Body, Full of Hell, and Lingua Ignota combine to give us a lesson in restraint and trust on their debut LP.

A metal record has never made me cry. Until Atna.

Midwest screamo outfit Snag shine a harsh but passionate light on climate change with their latest release.

Have A Nice Life drag us down through murky and metaphysical depths on their latest LP.

To Be Gentle shine a bright beacon of light in the face of a dark year with their latest EP.

But we can definitively say what the dead listen to—freight train blastbeats, distorted guitar melodies, and vicious vocals.

Powerful melody and spacious soundscapes stacked on sludgy hardcore riffing.
