Ithaca - The Language of Injury

I don't always listen to heavy music but when I do, it's because of Riley Breckenridge's Hermitology blog. Anyway, Ithaca rules. End review. They’re like a supersonic version of the early 00’s metalcore boom that you probably heard on most Trustkill releases. They remind me a lot of bands like The Bled or Converge or what have you, those heavy, sludgy bands that just pummel you relentlessly and never let up. I don’t have a lot more insight since metal isn't particularly in my wheelhouse but this album "slays" as the kids would say. Or wait, am I supposed to say it "slaps" now? I don’t know. I’m old.
