4 bands, 4 blogs, 1 amazing split. I’m incredibly happy to present the PremieRing, a project set up by four different blogs to each premiere one band from this new four-way split. To start things off, I was lucky enough to get Massa Nera, a Sophie’s Floorboard favourite. You might remember them from last year’s LP Los Pensamientos De Una Cara Palida, a modern screamo essential. This five-piece New Jersey band are back with a new offering of two tracks to kick off this split. You can check out the exclusive stream of these new songs below, as well as pre-order information and links to the other blogs in the PremieRing. Recording info for these tracks is as follows:

Allen Nuñez – Guitar & Vocals
Christopher Rodriguez – Guitar & Vocals
David Mocada – Bass & Vocals
John Rodriguez – Vocals
Mark Boulanger – Drums
Additional vocals on “Doing Nothing For Others Is The Undoing Of Ourselves” by Steve Roche
Tracked and Mixed by Steve Roche at Permanent Hearing Damage
Mastered by Carl Saff at Saff Mastering

The first track offered up here is “Un Mal Cola De Hadas”, which kicks off with some clean, looming melodic riffing, a clear sign of the band’s technical prowess. After some instrumental mingling, the vocals kick in, with some furious kit-shredding drums behind them. They utilize their many vocalists well, trading lines off each other before coming together in climatic, shouted unison. The guitars hammer out heavy dissonant chords, while the bass builds eerie lines in the back. This song blends hints of melody into angular rhythmic patterns, with every instrument getting a chance to shine amidst the cathartic chaos. As it comes to close, it breathes as it opens, giving the listener a second to recover before track 2 bludgeons again.

“Doing Nothing For Others Is The Undoing Of Ourselves” opens with an incredible rhythmic passage, with the bass and drums creating an almost dance-y vibe, intertwined with the guitar’s clean arpeggios. Just when the track sounds like its about to explode, they pull back and continue at the same level when some of the most impassioned vocals in recent history find a way to yelp themselves in. The vocals only build in intensity as the instrumental winds behind them. Sure enough, the blast beat climax this track has been teasing at finally hits, and its a glorious mesh of heavy bass, snare insanity, and guitar tremolos. On the way out, after all the instruments have rung out, there’s one final, lonesome scream, a perfect way to end a track that’s taken the listener to a couple of different places in a relatively short span of time. This band never ceases to amaze with the material they put out, and these new splits track are no different.

Keep these on repeat for a bit, and then check out the remainder of this split over at the incredible blogs listed below. I assure you this is one you do not want to miss. Enjoy.
