Vermilia – Karsikko

I’ve been thinking of them as a metalcore band, but I think that label might’ve become obsolete by the time they made “Macro”.
This EP isn’t anything I haven’t heard before. But it was mostly intended to be a compact dose of energy with some catchy hooks and grooves. And that mission was fully achieved.
There is no denying that there is a lot of talent on show here. Frogg obviously have a desire to produce something unusual and it will be interesting to see where they go from here.
