The Heavyist #241 Nails / Concrete Winds

Sonny.taylor@icloud.com (Sonny) — Thu, 29 Aug 2024 08:43:24 +0000

We're "MAD FER IT" this week (well Sonny is anyway) as we have yet another stacked bag of riffs to chat about. It's a grindcore party here on the Heavyist as we have 2 hard and fast ragers to talk about NAILS are BACK! Have they managed to keep up the pace after 8 years? Has the completely new line-up had any effect on their ability to level cities with their potent brand of HM2 thick metallic grindcore? I guess you'll have to listen to find out ;) Concrete Winds on paper might appear to be up against it releasing a grind record on the same day as Nails but we are here to tell you they don't need to worry! then we take a RARE divergence into talking about records this week that we were disappointed by - we go into everything we talk about wanting to love it but occasionally this just isn't the case. The Number Twelve Looks Like You broke the mathcore internet with their "interesting" new single, Zeal and Ardor have made a shift and we're not sure why and algorithmic darlings of metalcore Thrown have a new album out that is akin to a piece of chewing gum.
