New Music Recommendations

Have you ever wondered what it’s like to be brutally beaten to death by a record? Well, the new PSYCHO-FRAME is for you. The Florida/Missouri based “Spinkick Deathcore” band dropped their HIGHLY anticipated new record “SALVATION LAUGHS IN THE FACE OF A GRIEVING MOTHER.” This band has been dumbfounding the internet since their first single in 2023 and have absolutely bludgeoned their listeners with this new record. Get yourself a punching dummy and give this record a listen. FFO: Mugshot, The Acacia Strain, Frontierer, Suicide Silence(old) and fearing for your life in the mosh pit.
