EP Review: The Slime "Trapped on Blood Island" (Cursed Blessings Records) by Devin J. Meaney

Band: The Slime
Location: Toronto, Ontario
Country: Canada
Genre: Hardcore
Format: Digital
Label: Cursed Blessings Records
Release date: April 26, 2024
I found the “Trapped on Blood Island” EP by “The Slime”! With a name like “The Slime” I’d initially imagine music stylized like bands such as Plasma and Impetigo—but no. This is short blasting hardcore punk tracks—and honestly they are pretty damn good!
With a thrashy edge these guys hail from Toronto, Canada—and although the EP is less than 5 minutes long it gives a taste of things to possibly come, so I am preparing myself to hear more from this act, hopefully in the near future!
As the EP is so short I won’t ramble too much—it would take you less time to listen to the EP than to read a lengthy review. So just take my word that the music is tight and that the sounds are pleasurable to the eardrums. Give this lot of Canadians a shot eh?
Note: The cover art is pretty rad! -Devin J. Meaney
