Postcore

... the genre complex also known as post hardcore by some philistines. Think of anything smart, elaborate and artsy to have ever come out of the hardcore scene like, say, '80s & '90s Dischord groups. Math rock and -core. Oldschool emocore and anything adjacent to any of these. Whatever else fits in there somehow. It may have overlaps with genres like post punk and noise rock. Hard to distinguish in many cases anyway. Post old and new stuff. Let's not be too pedantic over genre definitions. One rule though: please keep it distinct from screamo and metalcore stuff, as there are already better suited communities existing for these genres.

This New York group's third EP once again showcases them as an overwhelming rowdy force to be reckoned with, made up of equally smart and furious postcore with some surface-level similarities to groups such as Mystic Inane, Wymyns Prysyn, Launcher, Cement Shoes or Liquid Assets. New to me from this group is some pronounced melodic vibe á la Drive Like Jehu-goes-Leatherface in the title track… surprisingly, this too works flawlessly!
