Chosen by Monk
My latest choice sees me back on ÜR’s home turf with this latest offering, so hot off the presses that it’s still smoking, from a Northern Ireland band who are definitely – and defiantly – rising from the ruins and ticking all our aural boxes – at least ‘Until We’re Gone’ from here (which hopefully won’t be for some time yet!).
Only formed a little more than a year ago, this five-piece from the otherwise unremarkable County Antrim town of Ballymoney, hit the ground running at the tail end of 2023, when they exorcised their ‘Inner Demons‘ with their debut three-track EP, whch at the time I described as displaying a confidence and maturity which contradicted the brevity of their existence. With the follow-up on its way, these youngsters are certainly building on their initial momentum and showing that it won’t be long before they are a force with which to be reckoned on both the local and wider metal scenes.
- ‘Poison For Your Soul‘ is due to be released on 6 September.
