I hear a lot of Unsane in Breather Resist, but I also hear a lot of other cool things being hurled in the 22 minute barrage of noise and mayhem on their debut.
Miles above their debut offering, Blood Has Been Shed turn it up to “11” with Spirals, a dynamically heavy album that rocks with a deafening blow to the head.
