New Music Recommendations
Canadian Tech Death masters, Archspire, are taking home the award for the most absurd record of 2026 and it’s only April. “Too Fast To Die” is also one of the most appropriate names for a record I’ve seen in a long time and the speed of this album is truly neck breaking. See how long you can last before you spontaneously combust. FFO: Cattle Decapitation, Infant Annihilator, Nile, The Faceless.
