Album Review: Year Of The Knife – Internal Incarceration

Losing someone close to you can be hard to put into words, but for Year Of The Knife, they’ve put it into a full album. The debut full-length from Delaware’s most destructive force comes in the wake of its members losing family and friends to addiction, and through its 13 tracks the ferocious five-piece confront those feelings of grief and heartbreak, but also empathy.Clocking in at just 31 minutes, there’s no time for pleasantries, as opener This Time swaggers into a bar fight it’s already won.

So Unknown [Analog]

Vinyl LP pressing. Includes booklet. Seven years into a career built on an uncompromising ethos and carefully crafted, brutal sounds, Jesus Piece melds intelligence and aggression in a manner that doesn't just push the genre's rigid boundaries. It sets the standard for the shape of hardcore to come.... So Unknown is the sound of articulated brutality that defies categorization. It's 28 minutes of rage and introspection slammed into the red. From explosive opener 'In Constraints' to the dissonant strains of 'Tunnel Vision' to the caustic 'An Offering to The Night', Jesus Piece's Century Media debut and their first full-length since 2018's landmark, 'Only Self' has been worth the wait. Co-produced and mixed by Randy LeBouef (Every Time I Die, Orthodox), '... So Unknown' is a spectacular second act and a passage to something more intense and personal for the five Pennsylvania natives.
