Written around half-of-a-decade ago and recorded three years ago, the brand new/debut full length from Minnesota’s Victor Shores is finally upon us! Tapes from Tomb Tree ship early December and 12”s from No Funeral ship 2023. Amazing, cathartic, uplifting emo punk from three very awesome individuals. For fans of: Tiny Moving Parts, You’ll Live, and Sincere Engineer.

CanaDave also did a podcast with Victor Shores (linked below) and in that podcast there was a brand new Keratin song premiered! Check it out for at least those two reasons, but there are tons more.

Lower Automation full release tomorrow, but Mathcore Index has an exclusive stream (with special links) as well as Metallerium who is ahead of the pack and already posted a full album review! Click here for the Metallerium post or click anywhere else here for the Mathcore Index premiere.

CanaDave witnessed the Thank You Driver show this past weekend and was lucky enough to have a camera ready for the band’s cover of “Moral Eclipse” by Cave In. I saw the band sell a hefty amount of their tapes, and we traded for some cds so expect a Thank You Driver discography cd set coming in early December.

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: A MOURNING STAR = This band closed the night at the Thank You Driver release show and it was fucking awesome. Hard Poison The Well vibes minus the clean vocals.
