Open Mike Eagle records are all slow burns with me. I feel I never really get into an album until the next one is announced.

Mexican screamo.

Absolute ripper.

Absolutely crushing.

This hit lately.

Get it. 

Fun, but not silly old school hardcore.

Go get it. 

This rips.

Go get it. 

I totally forgot I saw this band open for Botch back in February. 

Perfect mix of punk, hardcore and thrash.

Get it. 

Why did I sleep on this? God this is good. 

The liner notes for this album include “We made this album just as we made Consider, with no overdubs, loop pedals or effects pedals so we could preform it live exactly as it is on this record.” My dudes, effects pedals, even loopers, are portable. You can easily use those in a live setting, many bands do.

More. I need more. Go get it.

Also, international shipping prices suck.
