Nonpareil Posts New Track Online
Phoenix, Arizona band Nonpareil presents new track "Yuan Xing Jianyu" today, which can be heard below. A gnarly slab of anxiety-ridden noise rock, "Yuan Xing Jianyu" appears on the band's self-released debut EP, "Allergen," due out April 8th.
The song was inspired by frontman Connor Woods' experiences of alienation as an American living in China. "The song details the way it feels to experience a complete nervous breakdown," he says.
Woods is the original vocalist of black metal outfit Abigail Williams. Other members of Nonpareil did time in The Bled, Death of Marat, and Blues. Catch the band live on these dates:

Nonpareil Streaming "Blood Cockles And Gutter Oil"
New band Nonpareil – comprising ex-members of Abigail Williams, The Bled, Death of Marat, Blues, and more – reveals the "Blood Cockles and Gutter Oil" track online today. This song opens up the Phoenix, Arizona band's debut EP, "Allergen."
Nonpareil layers ironclad noise-rock with the desperation of post-hardcore. Churning, bruising rhythms of the Shellac variety are topped by wild-eyed vocals and leads that nod to the Gravity Records school of emotional distress.
The EP's lyrics are based largely in frontman Connor Woods' experiences traveling in China for a year - "themes of alienation, isolation and an aversion to the misguidedness of human progress," in Woods' words.
