     Props to Brando! My other guitar player in Mourn Recif showed me this band one night at band practice and it's the only time anyone has mentioned them to me, and holy smokes is that a travesty. Releasing four songs on their debut, self-titled EP 'Foxglove', the jams are equally dark and intense, bringing to mind Crowning and Leveless above others. The tracks are short (generally churning for around a minute-and-a-half), interesting, powerful, and screamy. That checks a lotta boxes. Opening jam "firefly pt 1" hits hard all the way through but shines brightest at the end of the track with a super playful outro. Very sick. The sequel and longest track on the release is "firefly pt 2" which spends nearly 40% of the track building to the absolute beast that is the midsection of the song. Love those call-and-response screams. "somewhere in between" is aptly titled, and includes some very sweet singing that transforms to and from screams, making it the most varied and arguably best song. "ithoughttheworldofyou" is a wild closer with tons going on to help convince the listener to give the entire EP another go, it's that good.

     Why are you still here? Go!
