4.0 excellentSlothy Seconds | March 23rd 23

From Shirley Manson to Soul Glo, from Anthony Green to Melt-Banana, they have doubled up on featured artists this time, there are at least 35. Best queercore/powerviolence of the year.

3.5 greatcjbizzlebizzle | June 29th 23

Not a 3.5 but also not quite a 4 in my books. Ferocious and heavy as ever but over time it just lacks the staying power, flow and replayability the last collection of tracks had. That being said, the barrage of guests on this record is amazing and adds a lot of unique vision to the tracks. Oddly enough the songs aren't long by any means but longer than in the past and I think that hurts a bit here compared to the true rapid fire tracks of past collections. HIRS is an amazing force in powerviolence, awesome in a live setting and a force that I hope continues on for a long time.

3.8 excellentErwann S. EMERITUS | April 11th 23

A clusterfuck of queer'n'core, We're Still Here isn't all about being queer and pissed off (although that's already good enough on its own terms!). Here, each tune is a playground to experiment with how all -core subgenres the collective wants to dip their powerviolence toes in: dissosaxo appear here and there, as is *the sass* (the fucking swagger pouring out of "Judgement Night"), or basically anyone cool in the core scene. It's short, yet it's povnding and diversified: that's the best sex!!

4.5 superbajcollins15 | March 29th 23

The long-standing Philadelphia grindcore act comes through one of their most slaying record to date with blistering screams, drums, and guitars to keep your eardrums pummeling the whole time. Plus, the features brought in on this record are so well incorporated and allow for various styles and genres to come together. From emo legends like Frank Iero (MCR) and Anthony Green (Circa Survive) to noise and drone acts like Melt-Banana and Chip King (the Body). There really is nothing about this record that is bad, it is just a very niche style and sound. But if you are into being beaten with sound this is definitely a great record to put on.
