DistortionHead Thanks to the Instagram music nerd who pushed this on my feed. Sad to think I didn't consume much slowcore this year. Eh, nonetheless, good find! Favorite track: (Untitled) Cowboy.

mbx220 There's a wonderful synthesis of sounds on this album - it's solid from the start until the finish, overall an excellent album and I hope this one gives them some more hype! This is my personal favorite album of 2025 so far. Favorite track: Ativan.

angrypizza98 Shallowater is possibly the best act in slowcore right now. Their debut was a great taste of the eventual magic that would appear here. The cohesion, the consistency, and oh my god that distorted guitar is absolute bliss! A truly marvelous record from one of the most promising talent around right now in the genre. 9/10 Favorite track: Sadie.

Ghuughra Where are the tabs guys?

Melmac_Dragon My favorite Big Brave release at the moment. Loud and folky at the same time. Highly recommended. Favorite track: not speaking of the ways.

pinkytheent WOW. Towering cliffs of feeling, soaring tsunamis of emotion crashing. I got teared up seeing these folks in DC – a show that felt like a flickering, wind-brushed campfire against the blue-black darkness growing in the trees. The best colossalism of Earth and Sunn O))), but with a heartbroken emotive heft totally their own – I could pick their feedback out of a lineup, let alone the delicate vocals which add deeper vulnerability. This is heart-bleeding and haunting music, full of power. Favorite track: theft.

rumbellz I love this album so so much 🖤🖤 it's perfect in it's beautiful darkness

poulet57 J'admire votre audace, votre originalité, votre créativité... j'adore votre musique !

General Mills The best record I've heard all year.

Filed between Big Black and Big Swifty. Favorite track: carvers, farriers and knaves.

UnspeakableHastur Massive and nuanced. Lyrics are so good. Favorite track: the one who bornes a weary load.
