In the fall of 1992, Fugazi traveled to Chicago to record with Steve Albini at his studio Electrical Audio, which at the time was located in a basement on North Francisco. The band and Albini had admired each other from afar, and they struck up an immediate affinity during the sessions. They were only supposed to record a few songs, but once things got rolling, they ended up tracking 12 — the entirety of what would later become the In On The Kill Taker tracklist.

Here’s a combination I never expected to see. Country-folk star Mary Chapin Carpenter was been making stately, pretty music since 1987. In the ’90s, she sold millions and won a bunch of Grammys. She was one of my dad’s favorite singers. Carpenter turns out to be friends with John Darnielle, frontman of the Mountain Goats,…

Birmingham, Alabama metalcore act ERRA released their new album "silence outlives the earth" today. Drawing from the personal experience of the death of a parent and the emotions that such a loss invokes, ERRA reflects deeply on life with "silence outlives the earth".
"stelliform" introduces the album with upbeat, clean guitar that has a classic metalcore feel as djenty guitar takes the lead, suddenly the act lurches into explosive chugging, screeching dissonanc,e and full-intensity screams. ERRA soon transitions into a chorus with melancholy singing, balancing harsh and melodic vocals in a traditional metalcore fashion. "further eden" starts with djenty riffage, soft singing, and ambient soundscapes, balancing screams and singing before jumping into a slamming breakdown. In a similar vein to the previous track, the song's chorus features melodic singing while verses change between brutal heaviness and soft ambience. In a final burst, the song builds into a hard-hitting breakdown that grows progressively heavier in an exciting twist.
"gore of being" brings to a life a faster tempo, bouncing synth arpeggios, and the band's signature djenty riffs as screams make way for soaring singing. ERRA builds into a crushing breakdown before ending with a final chorus that leads into an instrumental outro. "black cloud" slows things down as singing takes the forefront, feeling more like an upbeat hard-rock track (although ERRA still uses djenty guitar riffs that keep things different).
"cicada siren" brings back the action as explosively heavy chugging introduces itself along layered sing-screaming, creating a sound that is wildly heavy but still has traces of vocal melodies in the distance. Some clean vocals are introduces in verses before a final breakdown fades out the track. "echo sonata" starts with racing guitar arpeggios as singing is joined by building drums. The song quickly leads into a catchy chorus with soaring metalcore singing vocals before switching things up with a scream that leads into full-intensity instrumentals. Suddenly "echo sonata" flies into a breakdown that features a memorable bending guitar before ending on a melodic note.
"lucid threshold" grows the heavy momentum from the previous track as slamming chugs and screams build an intense sound before fading into clean vocals and atmospheric soundscapes. The chorus features classic metalcore vocals that soar high above the mix. "spiral (of liminal infinity) keeps a similar vibe to the previous song as heavy chugging, soft singing, and atmospheric soundscapes create a powerful backbone to the track.
The last 3 songs of the album all go together starting with "i. the many names of god" which brings the pacing back up as speeding metal riffs and brutal screams lead into grooving breakdowns that are fiercely heavy. ERRA builds a brutally heavy sound that feels almost futuristic as bright techno-esque synths can be heard in the distance underneath the sludgy guitar chugs. "ii. in the gut of the wolf" continues the heaviness and tech-y vibe of the previous song as electronic dance beats add a nice contrast to the brutal heaviness of the band's instrumentals and screams. The song slowly introduces singing vocals, to add a sense of melody in the songs outro.
The final song, "iii. twilight in the reflection of dreams" was set up with the previous track introducing vocals, and it follows with gentle singing, progressive guitar leads, and thumping bass. ERRA ends the album with a softer sound that takes a more atmospheric approach, focusing on singing and a lighter, more upbeat sound to finalize the album.
Overall, "silence outlives the earth" is an album that I think a lot of metalcore fans will enjoy. In general, I found the heavier portions of the album to be more exciting than the clean sections, and in songs like "lucid threshold" and "spiral" the choruses didn't particularly stand out as original or memorable as I had hoped they would be. ERRA still brings a signature blend of djent heaviness and modern metalcore melody into a dynamic sound that is enjoyable, but it wasn't quite as infectious as I was wishing from the band.
