Sores - Sores

Review by John Du

Sores' self-titled album is a captivating and intense release that showcases the band's unique blend of punk and noise rock. The album is a raw and unrelenting assault on the senses, with driving rhythms, screeching guitars, and anguished vocals that perfectly capture the band's nihilistic worldview.

From the opening track "Wounds" to the closing number "Gone," Sores never lets up, delivering a relentless barrage of sonic aggression that is both cathartic and exhilarating. The band's sound is unapologetically abrasive and confrontational, but there is also a sense of purpose and urgency that underlies every track on the album.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Sick," a blistering punk anthem that features some of the album's most intense vocals and frenzied guitar work. Another highlight is "Ashes," which builds from a slow, brooding intro to a full-on assault of distorted guitars and thundering drums.

Summary by John Du

Sores' self-titled album is a powerful and uncompromising release that should appeal to fans of both punk and noise rock. It is a testament to the band's uncompromising vision and their ability to create music that is both challenging and deeply rewarding.
