Idk how but after listening to this and the new EP(s) I ended up looking up Refused, another punk band that pushed the boundaries quite a bit. I thought after Shape of Punk, they just sort of disappeared but just found out after a 17 fucking year hiatus, they started producing music again. So I need to dive through that as well.
Gonna keep my eyes open for SYSC’s new one in April since I wasn’t even aware they were working on any new stuff until I saw your post. Also, idk if you listen to them but I think Face Yourself are supposed to be working on new stuff this year too. They were one of my new discoveries last year. Another female front person but they do Deathcore.
Shape of Punk was so good, truly ahead of their time. A shame it never broke through the stranglehold nu metal had on popular “heavy” music. I wasn’t a huge fan of Freedom, but War Music sounds more like something they would have made if they didn’t take a break and I enjoyed it.
I am going to look up Face Yourself. There’s only a few deathcore bands I listen to (Make Them Suffer, Brand of Sacrifice, a few others), but I always want new stuff!
