     The two quick releases in 2023 from MAYTH caught my attention before I even listened, for it said it was "emo-violence from Malaysia" so naturally if you don't check that out immediately you aren't really in the know about screamo, are you? Elitism aside, this solo project released four songs this year that blew my socks off.

     Starting with a fantastic short three-song EP 'greater transmission risk', these tracks blow by as each jam is less than a minute long. Venomous vocals (almost black metal in delivery) amidst chaotic hardcore and those wonderful emo-violence octaves, describing it any further seems silly given how short the tracks are. Just a month later 'mayth' was released that houses the single track titled "confusion". This track is almost as long as the entire EP that precedes it, and brings to mind the more metallic hardcore being kicked around in the early 2000s, namely Advocate and Tyranny Of Shaw.

     According to their Bandcamp page, there will be a full length dropping this March! Hella stoked on that.
