Eyrie – Untitled
Short-lived, lo-fi, emo-violence band from Moscow
Eyrie was a short-lived emoviolence from Moscow, Russia. They released an ultra-violent, noisy, lo-fi demo in 2012 and then broke up after one or a few shows in 2013. I haven’t heard from them again until recently.
I stumbled upon this gem when I rediscovered their demo via their label amicables. This EP was recorded two years after their demo. The whole Untitled consists of reworked demo tracks with some new tracks added. Damn, it seems I’m missing a bit too much?
Anyway, while this EP has improved in terms of quality, it is still fresh when it comes to utterly violent brilliance. It’s the musical manifestation of a nervous breakdown. Fast, frantic, menacing, chaotic, sinister, nerve-wracking, dark and short.
Their sound is so obvious that it stands on its own. It’s really worth listening to. It’s also worth checking out amicables’ other stuff with a similar noisy, lo-fi aesthetic.
Update 2023: The band’s full discography from 2022 has been uploaded to YouTube, listen below.
