Loma Prieta- I.V. (2012)

As I continue to get super pumped to see Converge in a tiny ass club again, I cant help but focus on their opening acts. This show is going to be ridiculous! Next we have Loma Prieta. I've been pretty stoked on this band for a bit now. Just ask Pat how many times I've asked him if he's listen to this record yet...hint: every time. Ferocious and sublime. Those two words sum it up for me. Ferocious is obvious, but sublime, sublime is really in the sense that it simultaneously takes me back and is pushing towards the future. Restoring my hope that their are people who are passionate about music and have an understanding that in order to progress you must know where you come from. These young guns really did their homework. Channeling every thing that's good about hardcore and spewing it forth with such vitriol and abandon, Loma Prieta's I.V. is a masterwork of modern hardcore. These gentlemen know how to do and do it really well! The long and the short of it is: Dude's, you have to listen to this shit!
