“For fans of riffs and synths, this album is a must listen! RIYL: Anamanaguchi, Jeff Rosenstock, Slow Joy, Mystery Dungeons, Full Blown Meltdown”
Waiting for Godot never sounded this loud: Coma Beach's I Won't Listen kicks off their "Scapegoat Revisited" triptych with four violent jolts of punk rock refusal and post-punk gloom, and A Madman's Dream/Mind Descending follows with fever-dream urgency fusing punk's feral bite with razor-edged post-punk precision. Nelson Comes To Visit turns up the heat with sparkly hardcore — soaring synths, chiptune riffs, and crushing guitars capturing wealth inequality and the creep of fascism on a world on fire. Wooden Crates keep it punchy with fun rhythms and relatable lyrics tackling overstimulation and the dangers of monetized online rage, while 8D6 chart an emotional pop-punk journey through Middle-Earth with just the right dash of folk and metalcore.
