“I’ve been waiting for this record to come out for years, ever since I saw this band open for The Casket Lottery reunion show in San Diego. The album is exactly what I hoped it would be—an irreverent collection straddling the “post” of “post-hardcore.” Songs like “Enter Skramz Band” are what At The Drive-In probably would have sounded like if they hadn’t veered into a more commercial direction (no judgment, that shit was tight too). That clean edge dissipates at times to bring out some more chaotic and urgent Ten Grand-like shapes. Overall, this is one of the best new records I’ve heard in years. If this band breaks up instead of making new music, I will riot.” –Theresa W.

about
LITTLE SYSTEM
when dawn comes i scalp the sun
i reach inside and grab a handful of his atoms
i grab a handful of atoms and i scatter em at ya
it just
eye worm
suck light virus up optic nerve
it calls itself "the Word"
it say
"I he! I let there be that light! you see?
wasn't that kind of Me??
I laugh and laugh
and laugh and clap
Myself on My own back,
did you observe that??"
i observed a matter too dark to fathom
i observed The Word cursing itself across the chasm
i observed a bang, i heard it rang so wrong and random
it's all come to a screeching halt, but my observation hasn't
my observation reveal a gap in each center
my observation give that straight timeline a bender
my observation's flipping effects into causes
my observation make wave go particle solid
my observation reveal a gap in each center
my observation gave that light spectrum a blender
Been following Somos for many years, feeling that they had an opus in them...well, here it is. Driving pop-punk sensibilities lend an upbeat tone in contrast to the grim lyrical proceedings, and they absolutely pull it off. Evocative music that's been on repeat for me all month long. RIP, Phil PaintedDogs
Fans of Polvo, take note! The excellent Kansas City band Abandoncy has the same fondness for corkscrewing riffs & melodies. It’s great! Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 28, 2022
Kansas City trio Flooding draw out the more mystical qualities of slowcore and noise rock for a heavy sound that's less stony than doom. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 26, 2023
