Vein.fm – “This World Is Going To Ruin You” LP (Deathwish Exclusive)
The follow-up to 2018’s Errorzone from the Boston metalcore group. Recorded in the middle of lock-down, holed-up in a New Jersey studio with Grammy-winning producer Will Putney, 12 tracks delivered in 32-minutes, and with guest appearances from rapper Bones, Jeff Smith of Jeromes Dream and Thursday’s Geoff Rickly.
The Hyrda Head influence has been stretched even further – maybe a little less Botch than before, (with a stronger Converge vibe instead, maybe? I’m hearing a Jane Doe moment as I type) – a progression that encroaches upon nu-metal territory I guess, but that’s not a genre I know much about, so I can’t be certain… but this definitely is a dangerous and deeply unsettling sensory overload. Violence, adrenalin and anxiety exploding in a dozen different directions, but occasionally balanced by calmer breaks for contrast.
