Grand Rapids, Michigan rapper, singer/songwriter, producer & Dirtcore Music founder Crossworm rapidly following up Dirtwave along with his fifth EP. Beginning as 1/2 of 2Korpse earlier than branching out on his personal for the full-length solo debut Phoenix, this was adopted up by a sophomore LP Able to Burn alongside 2 EPs Mouth Stuffed with Filth & jaws: Deciduous respectively. Taking a couple of years off after the latter, he returned in the summertime of 2014 by dropping 4 extra albums: Parasite Avenue, Drowning in Limiting Thought, Discovering X & Eat the Weak. I’ve lined each ANTI & the eponymous Our bodies Beneath Sea Stage debut, coming off an EP couple weeks in the past by making one other stylistic departure on Shelter Skelter.
The title observe begins with a witch home intro that sounds prefer it may very well be performed on the finish of an episode in the course of the upcoming fifth & last season of the Netflix hit collection Stranger Issues whereas “Condemned” takes a prominently industrial route instrumentally kinda just like the Our bodies Beneath Sea Stage album with out the hip hop fusion. “Oubliette” dabbles with the darksynth subgenre of synthwave moreover utilizing a drum machine previous to “Bones within the Cellar” ending the best way he began within the type of one other witch home minimize.
Once you take a look at the Depeche Mode affect on ANTI nearly 2 years in the past & the commercial horrorcore idea of Our bodies Beneath Sea Stage’s wider introduction to the underground as a crew, Shelter Skelter offers a shot at making industrial & witch home music taking a break from rapping or singing to cook dinner a couple of beats catered across the experimental model of music rising out of 70s punk & sprinkling in hints of crunk shoegaze sometimes for just a little over 10 minutes.
