Today, we’re premiering the perfect classic punk split. Side A featuring the dreamy shoegazy sounds of Grey Gordon's Kill Surf City. Side B featuring the no holds hardcore sounds of Soothing (x-Trash Talk, Sinking Ships). Listen to it below!
Grey Gordon spoke to us exclusively: “The split came about naturally since Nick from Soothing and I play in another band together. Kill Surf City and Soothing aren’t particularly sonically similar, but I do think we share a similar ethos. We both come from and remain firmly rooted in hardcore, but we’re exploring other sounds as well. For my part, this is the most post-punk material I’ve done with this project.
I essentially tried to channel Crisis through a hardcore lens. Soothing is doing that with black metal. Ultimately, I think the bands complement each other very well, and I’m really excited this split came together.”
