Nonpareil Streaming "Blood Cockles And Gutter Oil" Track

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.

See the band live:

Mar 17 - Mesa, AZ @ The Nile Theatre w/ Intronaut, The Ocean, North
Apr 9 - Flagstaff, AZ @ The Green Room w/ Sorxe, Father Figures
