DESCRIPTION
You Won't Go Before You're Supposed To - Knocked Loose / As Knocked Loose chipped away at what would become their third album, they felt the pressure from all sides. Internally, there was the need to challenge themselves as songwriters while retaining the merciless intensity and unflinching honesty that have always been their calling cards - and to also live up to the sizable expectations that followed in the wake of 2019's A Different Shade of Blue, one of the most acclaimed metallic-hardcore albums in recent memory. Externally, there was a whole new set of eyes on the hard-touring Louisville quintet, following a banner year on the road, during which they'd brought their underground-seasoned sound to some of the world's biggest stages, finding themselves the unlikely viral darlings of both Coachella and Bonnaroo. - Across 10 tracks and 27 gripping minutes, You Won't Go Before You're Supposed To answers that question time and again. These songs are still hardcore, still Knocked Loose, but they explore new vistas of emotion, texture and sonic strategy. Everywhere they've been is here on this record, but so is everywhere they may yet go. PURE NOISE RECORD
