LP stands for loser pop by Eyesplice
As the scene rediscovers fast, riffy hardcore, a natural impulse takes over: to push the pedal to the floor and create the most desperate, angsty, kinetic sound possible. Eyesplice takes a critical role in this endeavor with LP stands for loser pop, a sasscore album that lets the id explore its desires completely unrestrained. From the beginning, the band proves their ability to keep pace with the demands of the sasscore style, with outrageous guitar feedback, squealing vocal delivery, and crunchy progressions. At this point, however, Eyesplice diverges from this microgenre formula, exploring their other musical interests in the pop punk, emo, and crunkcore directions. Sasscore’s expressive vocal and guitar work feel completely at home in this environment, freshening up these ancient, thoroughly explored sounds with new riffs, breakdowns, and aesthetics. By succeeding at this wide range of applications, Eyesplice directs all of our attention to the underlying energy that motivates their music, to the bleeding angst that shines flawlessly through its many manifestations, to the frustrated spirit of the age that makes hardcore faster and leaves our minds restless.
