ZEUS! is so unbelievable heavy it’s almost unmusical. Which is not to say there’s no melody or that it’s not catchy (their Opera LP is all of this and more). Just that, when you hear this Italian duo play together, you don’t think of a band. You think of power, mountains, strength, force. It’s an MORE…
SQUID PISSER eviscerates the ego and and all things serene with their own vibrant form of vicious and mucky hardcore. Slamming down dolphin corpses at breakneck speeds, the duo, which is comprised of Tommy Meehan on guitar (Deaf Club, Cancer Christ, Sweatband Records, Cartoon Network) and Seth Carolina (Starcrawler), have constructed a fresh and mucousy MORE…
Venamoris – Drown in Emotion LP Venamoris was founded in 2021 by what can only be called astral influence.

Inside the club it’s very dark and crowded. The window to the courtyard is foggy from all the bodies in the room and the Locust is on stage, halfway through a minute-long song I love, then half a minute later the song is over. The band is all dyed black hair and denim, dirtbag glamour, MORE…
