Loma Prieta finally live up to their potential and create a great screamo record, and then Sputnikmusic lives up to its reputation and overrates the hell out of it.
Sometimes you wonder just how far Screamo can go without being batshit insane like CTTS or
mellowing out and trying a more melodic approach like La Dispute. And then there's Loma
Prieta and they're like 'shut the fuck up and enjoy this quality Screamo' and you do. And
you don't think twice about it.
3 LP's of fantastic but similar sounding music and now a 4th LP that evolves with their signing to a major. rLoma has been a figure head for a more serious and adult sound of screamo and with this Deathwish release, rLoma raises the evolution of the sound they helped put them on the map.
Currently my favorite album out of 2012's offerings. This screams "instant classic." glad to see them getting recognition. props to deathwish for picking them up too.
Okay I might be ultra hyped here, but gosh durn. This album is frooting huge. Gigantic I tell you. I don't think there'll be an emo album this year that'll top this, goth violence for life.
