I've heard these guys called metalcore, but there's bits of rock and roll, progressive, stoner. Idk man but it's been knocking me sideways lately.

What would you say this is? Does it matter? And most importantly does it slap?

Doesn’t matter. It’s got influences of all sorts of good things. Psychedelic rock, prog, punk, metal, stoner. Reminds of QOTSA experimental flow and layering but more punk and metal influence than desert blues. It’s got 90’s punk style vocals and punk influenced drums. It slaps!

The QOTSA vibe hadn't occurred to me but now I can't unhear it

I always thought they were more stoner metal. Dont know if it matters though, they are great either way

I would not call them metalcore. Metal, rock, punk...maybe math rock. I think it is the hardcore punk sound that leads people to use the metalcore tag. Doesn't matter though. Good band.
