EMPATHETIC ‘The Room Collapses Quietly‘ cd (ZBR403)

For fans of: Beau Navire, Brahm, and Monterey.

In true screamo fashion, Vancouver’s EMPATHETIC played a few shows, recorded this EP and then went on hiatus. Their six song EP ‘The Room Collapses Quietly’ shows a band who immediately embraced their best possible trajectory and did so to perfection. The sound found primarily on this is mathy, jarring, heavy-yet-beautiful emo-violence not unlike Beau Navire and Brahm, Tracks like “Culminate”, “Volatile”, and “Yield“ take blasts of grindy screamo and inject some jazzy, gorgeous interludes that lead back to more chaos. Honestly this EP is fucking incredible and will easily be one of the best things to come out of 2026. Features a member of Thank You Driver.

CDs /100 in a slip-sleeve housed in a resealable plastic bag w/insert. 6 tracks.
