STREET DATE: 9/6/24
CAT#: NMZ005
LABEL: New Morality Zine

DOWNWARD. A band from Tulsa, Oklahoma with humble beginnings who have set to live beyond musical boundaries. What started as an idea amongst friends quickly became a passion to create music that satisfies all of their overlapping musical interests. The band offers an inspiring sonic take on the realm of alternative and post-hardcore. Downward finds themselves towing the line between what is seemingly light and airy (reminiscent of Radiohead) and at the same time beautifully crushing (akin to modern luminaries Nothing).

04. Not Now, But Soon
05. Splinter
06. Found A Friend
07. Gehenna/Evaporate

Prim "Move Too Slow"

LP - $17.25
STREET DATE: 9/6/24
CAT#: SDR-117
LABEL: Sunday Drive

Originally formed in 2020, Prim was established by founding members Kevin Flores and Mark Ramos as a departure from their previous bands in the Houston punk and hardcore scene. Still sharing the same ethos, Prim was a platform for the band's love of indie and alternative rock, mirroring the evolution of Deep Wound to Dinosaur Jr. Now based in Seattle, the band has transformed with the addition of members Evelyn Frances and Shane Juretic.

"Move Too Slow" marks Prim's debut LP, solidifying their place in the Seattle music scene. Until now, Prim produced their music independently. For this LP, they collaborated with local friends Mark Palm (Supercrush, Go It Alone) on production and Phil Jones (Shook Ones, Supercrush) on engineering. And finally, Texas-native, Phillip Odom (Militarie Gun, Angel Du$t, Ceremony) added final touches on mixing and mastering.

The eleven-track album showcases Prim's knack for crafting catchy hooks backed by fuzzed-out guitar riffs and leads. Vocals are shared between Kevin and Evelyn, each leading their own songs while also harmonizing together. Songs like "Make Your Bed" evoke the 90s band, The Breeders, with Evelyn's swirling, aggressive vocals. "Don't Count on Me" echoes the Dinosaur Jr. influence, featuring squealing guitar hooks, reminiscent of a 90s movie soundtrack. Meanwhile, "Cruisin'" features Kevin repeating the hook and guest vocals from Squint's Brennan Wilkinson, making it one of the more straightforward punk songs on the record. Prim shines on their first full-length album, clearly having the best time in crafting songs that are perfect for banging your head and moving fast.

02. Make Your Bed

Many Eyes "The Light Age"

LP - $19.40 / CD - $8.75

STREET DATE: 9/6/24

LABEL: Perseverance Media Group

Many Eyes began in the winter of 2022 when Keith Buckley (Ex-Every Time I Die, The Damned Things) connected with brothers Nick (Producer/ Owner of Dexter's Lab Recording) and Charlie Bellmore (Corpsegrinder/ Toxic Holocaust) through their mutual friend, Jamey Jasta, frontman for metal legends Hatebreed. The Light Age was written and recorded over a few weeks in both Buffalo, NY, and Milford, CT, where the members reside.Taking cues from the Grunge Rock and Hardcore of the 1990s that was so influential to them growing up, the members of Many Eyes skillfully blend chaos with melody.

Many Eyes’ live performances, including their tour with post-hardcore icons THURSDAY, have demonstrated their ability to deliver high-energy shows with precision and emotion. With Craig Vittorio now on guitar and Sean Vallie on bass, alongside Nick Bellmore’s powerful drumming and Keith Buckley’s commanding vocals, the band remains focused on pushing forward and exploring new creative horizons.

As they embark on the next phase of their journey, Many Eyes remains committed to their core ethos—creating music that resonates deeply with listeners, blending raw power with melodic depth, and continually evolving as artists. The future looks bright as they continue to chart their path forward.
