The uncooked, expressionist DIY screamo scene continues to thrive, and two of its most promising bands have simply come collectively for a brand new break up 7″. Chicago trio Crowning, whose membership consists of Frail Body frontman Lowell Shaffer, launched their debut album Survival/Sickness in 2020. Last yr, they dropped a break up with Singapore’s NAEDR. Baltimore’s Eyelet launched their very own full-length debut The Devil Shining Out Your Eyes on the very finish of 2021. Today, these two bands be part of forces.
The new Crowning/Eyelet break up has two songs apiece from each bands. Crowning’s tracks “Mu” and “Hy Brasil” are brief and brutally disorienting, whereas Eyelet’s “Gross Abandon” and “Argus Of Concrete” are fierce and metallic and at the very least a little bit bit epic. For me, the massive winner right here is “Gross Abandon,” which sounds just like the sort of factor which may echo over dusty rubble within the post-apocalypse, however be happy to make your individual decisions if you stream the break up beneath.
The Crowning/Eyelet break up is out now on Zegema Beach Records.
