     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.

*** PODCAST #141 Kyle (VS Self, Self Versed Records) ***

     VS SELF has been blowing up for a minute, and their cross between Two Knights emo and D'Amore screamo piqued my interest and then some. I had the pleasure of chatting with Kyle (guitar/vox) of the band who also runs Self Versed Records. A few things discussed: Gayt (Kyle's new band), covering up profanity in the car, drunk does not equal punk, overcoming struggles and the rebirth, a Reptilian tangent, The Badlands show turning point, accumulated factors of success, losing of a member/gaining a member, TikTok talk, living the dream and being in constant awe, VS Self's 2024, go to all the screamo shows in San Diego and L.A., etc. Bands played in this podcast: Boyfriends, Cassels, Cenobite, D'Amore, Dakota Dakota, and Icrywhenispeak.

      ÂME MORTE...what the fuck? This is easily one of the best demos of 2023. Cathartic emo-violence littered with beauty. Four songs, all fantastic, all short, and in the vein of Piri Reis. Honestly I don't need to say anything more about this, as the EP is so short you might as well get ravaged and love every minute of it, instead of reading this bullshit.
