Montreal's GORLVSH Premiere 'Sheppard One Is Down' via NoCleanSinging
Debut Album "New City Vibe" Out June 5th via No List Records & Ancient Temple Recordings
Bringing their bizarre, mathy, metallic hardcore music to ears everywhere, Montreal, QC power trio GORLVSH (pronounced Gore-Lush) are premiering their single 'Sheppard One Is Down' via NoCleanSinging HERE.
The track is off their forthcoming debut album"New City Vibe"due out June 5, 2020 via No List Records and Ancient Temple Recordings. With a tornado of crushing heavy sludgy riffs and energetic energetic sound, GORLVSH is suited for anyone looking for something completely different, the band explains:
"We constantly wrote music with the live show in mind. We wanted that to a good blend of all the things we dig that bands do, scrapping the weakest stuff along the way, and constantly iterating upon the songs we dig. Eventually, when we decided to record the full length, we just worked backward from which tracks were most exciting to make something we could be proud of. We’ve upped our production game a lot, but focused primarily on what makes our sound unique, finding riffs that work for our blend of multiple bass amps, octave pedals, and a ton of distortion and fx. We really aim to sound as good and professional as possible, despite our DIY ethos and $0 recording budget.”
Entitled “New City Vibe”, the album is a new mantra, as an injunction. New City Vibe is decadence. The lyrics on the release are all about today’s challenges, individualism, hyper-sexualization, ordinary violence, competition between individuals and deadly ideologies destroying people's lives. For those who are from the band's hometown of Montreal, the artwork represents the iconic Farine Roses building.
GORLVSH's "New City Vibe" is available for digital, CD and cassette pre-order from No List Records here and Ancient Temple Recordings here.

EPK “Combining the influential sounds of Converge, Death from Above 1979 and Lightning Bolt, Montreal’s Gorlvsh (pronounced “Gore-Lush”) is dead set on adding some rowdiness and weirdness to the sonic landscape. We don’t know if they are, as they claim, “Montreal’s sickest guitar-less band,” but from what we can tell they make a hell of a racket that combines math rock angularity, crushing metallic riffs, off-kilter rhythms and a few catchy hooks in there for good measure.” – Decibel Magazine
“Blending Dillinger Escape Plan–esque angular complexity with punk snarl and groovy riffs reminiscent of Mutoid Man, Gorlvsh may not have been what the death metal/grindcore crowd at L’Esco were expecting, but they were one of the most fun and most unique local bands I’ve seen in a good while.” – Bucketlist Music Reviews
