Respire

As we've now arrived at the 9 month mark of a pandemic that we just spectacularly failed at getting under control, be it scientifically, governmentally, or culturally, and more and more people die to the sound of crickets, along comes a record that seems to hit my mood just right.  And so we have "Black Line," the latest release from Toronto's Respire.  The whole thing is a beautiful, intense, chaotic, and cathartic mix of black metal, screamo, and post rock and metal.  It's pretty much where my nerves are at these days.  Check out "Tempest" below and get the album here from Church Road Records.
