2022 - 05 - 15 /// What a weekend, still reeling

Sorry for the lack of updates we are shipping out these Hayworth and Loftus orders from the weekend. We’ll have a new release on Thursday (the Trophy Hunt cassette full length) but until then there’s lots for you to check out!

First, take a minute-and-a-half to scope this ridiculous old-timey video for ZBR Fest Midwest updates including some late additions, a cancellation, and sick Massa Nera news!

I (CanaDave) went to and thoroughly enjoyed the first screamo show I’ve seen in about 2.5 years. Not only that, but I filmed Jeromes Dream, Senza, and Hawak play a buncha songs for the first time since the pandemic started. Full review and blog post is available at (((((OPENmind/SATURATEDbrain))))) and is linked via this text.

Johnny’s Reco-mmendations: GOSPEL = New Gospel is proggy as fuck and super dense. If you can handle experimentation in screamo this will likely blow your mind.
