For the Man That Has Everything
Now nearing its one-year anniversary, this pummeling EP unleashes all the pent-up energy we’ve accumulated while stalking around our homes for for the better part of a year. Scene veterans Noble Brown, Clarke Wilson, Jason Morales, Joey Cortez, and Ben Webster stay true to hardcore OGs in chaotic flashes like “This Can’t Be Right,” but the eight song, 10-minute release also manages to slow down. The stop-start rhythms in “Black Mercy” and “You’ve Been Warned” sludge thickly. Circle pits remain banned, but solo headbanging works well enough.
Available as a digital download and vinyl.
