It seems like I've hit a glitch in the matrix, as tonight I'm premiering a song from a band that's one release and done. Hattiesburg, Mississippi's Shesmadefromsuede release their self-titled EP via Tomb Tree on 20th October (I guess you can call it a posthumous release). The song I'm premiering is 'V' and it's available to stream via Youtube below:-
Sam from Shesmadefromsuede was kind enough to provide some words about the release, but given the band's current status you can forgive them for being brief:-
"All I want to say about the release itself is Hattiesburgworld forever. The band is done entirely and we will not be playing any more shows for the foreseeable future. The bass player and myself (Sam) are forming a new band with more metalcore influences."
‘V’ lives up to the band’s own description of therapyviolence. It’s as stark as you’d imagine emoviolence to be but it also contains all kinds of extra elements, from atmospheric post-hardcore guitar melodies and percussion, to panic-chords and chugging metalcore bass/riffs. The higher-pitched screams over the top pierce through the soundstage created by the instrumentation, showing a vulnerable, slightly darker side as well.
I know that this one song isn't enough, so I've found this live set video from April that's well worth your time too:-
That set was so, so, so, so good!
There will be 50 tapes coming from Tomb Tree on 20th October, so keep your eyes fixed on the below links if you've enjoyed this song premiere and also that live set:-
