    I actually got to see them in Dallas! Even though they were short several members, they still had an incredible stage presence and made sure to make use of the rest of the stage. Snippets of girly pop songs were played in between tracks to get people hype (it worked) and actually caused a mosh pit to form in front of the stage. Jenna, the vocalist, was the biggest sweetheart and even gave me a vinyl copy of the album for free since I didn’t really have the means to buy it. She even gave me a hug after I told her that it was my first live show and how much this album was doing for me. Great band, unforgettable and absolutely worth seeing live

      all of the artists featured on the album are definitely worth a listen! I'm familar with Full of Hell, Escuela Grind, Thou, Soul Glo and they among the top in their respective genres(which differ greatly), so its certainly a cool path to explore. Melon a real one for putting me on the Thou worship back in 2011.
