β€œRust” is the new album from Harm’s Way. Recorded at Brick Top Recordings by Andy Nelson (Weekend Nachos, Dead In The Dirt), mixed at God City Studios by Kurt Ballou (Converge, High On Fire), and mastered by Brad Boatright at Audiosiege (Obituary, Nails). Brutally and meticulously refined, β€œRust” brilliantly combines industrial repetition (think Godflesh), metal attack (think Sepultura, Helmet, Celtic Frost), and hardcore aggression. Showing that Harm’s Way have emerged from the wreckage of past genres as the new high watermark of heavy in contemporary aggressive music.
Opener β€œInfestation” stomps with machine-like precision before plunging into a depressing sonic dirge. While songs like β€œLaw Of The Land”, β€œHope”, β€œCancerous Ways”, and others introduce guitar and electronic driven atmospherics into the arsenal. These subtle dynamics bleed into other aspects of β€œRust” as well. Mid-album beast β€œLeft To Disintegrate” unfurls as an unforgettable anti-anthem ripe with infectious creeping metallic undertones. While β€œAmongst The Rust” and β€œTurn To Stone” introduce guest vocals from Colin Young (Twitching Tongues) and Emily Jancetic. Both of them adding haunting nuance to the brute force of the band. All of this leads to the epic closer β€œEase My Mind”; a take-no-prisoners aural bludgeoning so heavy that it needs to be heard to be believed.
