New Waters - Lions EP

Blood and Ink Records doesn't ever seem to get the credit I think they deserve. With each new signing and release, the label proves that releasing great music is more important than succumbing to current trends and stylings.

The label's newest act is New Waters. The Finnish act's new ep, Lions, will easily appeal to fans of Converge and Advent.

Empty Graves comes roaring out your speakers in a blaze of feedback and punk ferocity. That vein continues throughout the entire ep. Manifest starts on a sludgier note but the track quickly loses that shell to bust into an all out punk assault.

New Waters' debut is an extremely solid hardcore ep, that combines the punk attitude of Converge and the chaotic nature of The Chariot.
