A lot has happened in the six years since I created “Herbs to Heal, Lilies to Mourn”, but it’s still just as meaningful to me today as it was the day I started it. Prints available through @deathwishinc. (at Downtown Los Angeles) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn21AWrP4LC/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Debut album, released in 2020. Band features Jacob Bannon on vocals (Converge, Wear Your Wounds), Mike McKenzie on guitars / vocals (The Red Chord, Wear Your Wounds, Stomach Earth), Sean Martin on guitar / vocals (Wear Your Wounds, Twitching Tongues), Greg Weeks on bass (The Red Chord), Jon Rice on drums (ex-Job for a Cowboy, Uncle Acid). Recorded and Mixed by Kurt Ballou at GodCity. The band was formed during rehearsals for Wear Your Wounds. The intro track reminds me of Slayer. Real heavy death metal throughout the album. Great debut from some legends in the genre’s.
Great American Ghost “Power Through Terror” (2020) // A stunning surprise from a band that once seemed like a by the numbers unit. GAG open the release super convincingly and instantly showcase that they’ve risen from the pack. The act has been chiseling away at their catalogue for years and it feels like it’s finally all coming together for them. Heavy, intricate, well produced, reminiscent of an early Architects record 2/3 @therecentlyadded •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• #therecentlyadded #newrelease #musicblog #purenoiserecords #sumerianrecords #willowtip #uniquelordrecords #southernlordrecords #prostheticrecords #nuclearblastrecords #seasonsofmist #relapserecords #sharptonerecords #riserecords #epitaphrecords #metalbladerecords #staysickrecords #deathwishinc #thisishardcore #nyc #hxc https://www.instagram.com/p/B9BrsptAdea/?igshid=vwkmi3jdpudz
