BrooklynVegan Presents post-hardcore for and by post-youths. Featuring members of Thrice, Kowloon Walled City, and Curl Up and Die.
The supergroup features members of Thrice, Kowloon Walled City and Curl Up and Die (four-fifths of whom are in the tonally polar opposite baseball worship crew Puig Destroyer), and their bummertime debut, Strangled Light, is dropping on Gilead Media on July 28. Mike Minnick of CUAD handles the incisive downer lyrics, and “Pessimism as Denial” (premiering exclusively below) sums up their worldview: “We’re surrounded by prophets / Who think spilling their guts / Is the same thing as giving blood / We’ve eaten all the animals / We’ve burned down every tree / We’ve done so many wrongs … / This system doesn’t work / The world is better without us.” Indeed. Mean people may suck, but content fatcat assholes are worse.
