Lockslip is the crushing self-titled debut EP from the Los Angeles metallic hardcore outfit. Forming in late 2022 and self-producing/self-releasing the EP in January 2024, the band turned heads quickly with this 14-minute display of chaos. With punishing breakdowns that any hardcore fan would enjoy, as well as plenty of complex mathy bits, this feels less like the debut release of a brand-new band, and more like an intentional and polished group looking ahead to the future. These 4 songs tell the story of being fed up with the status quo, and of expressing a deep inner turmoil through feedback-laden anguish. The EP was produced and mixed by drummer Noah Baxter at Dichotic Studios, mastered digitally by Brian Skipworth at Skipwave Sound, and remastered for vinyl by Nick Townsend at Townsend Mastering.

Featuring members of notable acts such as Entry, Auteur, Mom and the Mailman, and Decoybody. Pressed on 1-sided 12-inch vinyl with a screen-printed design on the B-side. Cover and screen-print artwork by James Hutton. Band logo art by Preston Weippert.

Hidden Mothers is a progressive post-hardcore band from Sheffield, UK. Despite so far only releasing a single (2019's 'The Longest Journey Yet') and a three-track self-titled EP in 2020, Hidden Mothers have generated quite a reputation in the UK music scene, with sold out headline shows across the UK.

Their long awaited debut album 'Erosion/Avulsion' is a record that features all the blast beats, driving riffs and impassioned screaming that Hidden Mothers have come to be known for, but is also drenched in atmosphere, haunting melody, and delicate emotion, thanks in no small part to Luke Scrivens' potent lyricism and his Jeff Buckley-esque singing voice. It may have taken a while to get here, but Hidden Mothers 2.0 will not disappoint.

TRACK LISTING:
01. Defanged
02. Death Curl
03. Still Sickness
04. Caton Green
05. The Grey
06. Grandfather
07. Violet Sun
08. Haze
