ANOTHER MOUTH IN A STARVING WORLD OH HOW VERY ORDINARY IT'S NOT A VIRTUE NOT QUITE A BLESSING THERE'S SOMETHING THAT WE'RE ALL FORGETTING
HUMAN ROACHES, HUMAN RATS. WE'RE NO DIFFERENT. DON'T FORGET. HUMAN VERMIN, HUMAN ANTS. WE'RE NO DIFFERENT. DON'T FORGET IT. FLEAS ON RATS FLEAS ON RATS HUMAN ROACHES. HUMAN RATS. WE'RE NO DIFFERENT. DON'T FORGET. HUMAN VERMIN, HUMAN ANTS, WE'RE NO DIFFERENT. DON'T FORGET. MOTHER NATURE'S CRUELEST TRICK, GORGE OURSELVES UNTIL WE'RE SICK HUMAN TAPEWORMS, HUMAN TICKS, WE'RE NO DIFFERENT, DON'T FORGET HUMAN ROACHES, HUMAN RATS. WE'RE NO DIFFERENT. DON'T FORGET. HUMAN VERMIN, HUMAN ANTS, WE'RE NO DIFFERENT. DON'T FORGET. MOTHER NATURE'S CRUELEST TRICK, GORGE OURSELVES UNTIL WE'RE SICK HUMAN TAPEWORMS, HUMAN TICKS, WE'RE NO DIFFERENT, DON'T FORGET HUMAN ROACHES. HUMAN RATS. WE'RE NO DIFFERENT. DON'T FORGET. HUMAN VERMIN, HUMAN ANTS, WE'RE NO DIFFERENT. DON'T FORGET. MOTHER NATURE'S CRUELEST TRICK GORGE OURSELVES UNTIL WE'RE SICK HUMAN TAPEWORMS, HUMAN TICKS, WE'RE NO DIFFERENT, DON'T FORGET
HUMAN ROACHES. HUMAN RATS. WE'RE NO DIFFERENT. DON'T FORGET. HUMAN VERMIN, HUMAN ANTS, WE'RE NO DIFFERENT. DON'T FORGET. MOTHER NATURE'S CRUELEST TRICK GORGE OURSELVES UNTIL WE'RE SICK HUMAN TAPEWORMS, HUMAN TICKS, WE'RE NO DIFFERENT, DON'T FORGET

The Deal
by SUMAC

supported by 259 fans who also own “Rats”

An absolutely pummeling assault of thick sludgy riffs, guttural rumbles, and tribal drums. Listening to this album is like being slowly buried by an avalanche. Practically makes Isis sound like Top 40 pop music by comparison. mattgraupman

May You Be Held
by SUMAC

Emotionally textured and beyond heavy- so heavy it’s oddly gentle. rabid axolotl

What One Becomes
by SUMAC

supported by 214 fans who also own “Rats”

Weird: I thought I had tried this at some point and could not get into it; now I like it a lot. Aaron Turner and his friends make it sound like Isis’ evil twin or something. Alice M.

The Tides Will Prevail
by Kenoma

The debut full-length from Kenoma is full of spacious, haunting songs that steadily build to great rushes of sound. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 29, 2017

Páthos
by Conjurer

The UK four-piece summon the ghosts of metal past to create an unsparing album that's unmistakably contemporary. Bandcamp Album of the Day Jun 30, 2022

Love In Shadow
by SUMAC

supported by 198 fans who also own “Rats”

I initially found this to be rather meandering after the brutal immediacy of What One Becomes, but within the improvisational void lies an amorphous beauty. Sugammadex
