Converge: s/d

It's nice to not have to strain to make out what Bannon is singing/speaking/shrieking/howling about for a change.

"We all disagreed about what the strongest songs were, and which songs made for the best record. I think we're all equally unhappy with what ended up on the album. It was a compromise. Some of the songs on that album are actually some of the weakest ones that we recorded, and some of the ones that aren't on the album are the strongest. We're just not exactly sure how we're going to release them yet. Whether it's B-sides, or an EP, we don't know yet."

kinda wish they'd pulled a Young Machetes and just thrown 'em all in. the album already kinda has a swansong vibe

for your consideration

the intro to 'all we love' is the only dawdling buildup intro track i respect
