Hear the scorching new slowcore dirge from Flooding, “Transept Exit”
On September 29, Kansas City slowcore band Flooding will release their new album Silhouette Machine. The group’s already shared one single, “Muzzle,” and today they’ve released another glacial scrape of a song, “Transept Exit.” As it takes shape, the song is a subtle, spacious slowcore dirge in the vein of Codeine, but erupts into a ferocious gnashing of noise rock. It’s intense and cathartic, a surprising explosion into heavy and excoriating aggression that its first few minutes only barely seem to hint at. It’s a white-knuckle ride that doesn’t move much faster than a crawl—like Duster slowly evolving into Chat Pile—which is what makes it that much more interesting. Hear Flooding’s “Transept Exit” below.
