Destroyer Destroyer - Littered With Arrows
WV003 - DESTROYER DESTROYER ‘Littered With Arrows’ -RIP Jamie- Hopefully this album needs no introduction. This is it. This is the entire era wrapped up with a bow. I think it's literally the tent-pole, flagship, quintessential MySpace mathcore/techgrind release. It's Destroyer Destroyer's “Littered With Arrows" for the first and ONLY time on vinyl. And oh boy, let me tell you about this vinyl. But first, let me gush about this album more: Littered is such a classic because it's one of the few albums from the period that was truly “recorded.” It’s an album. It’s cohesive and tells a story – and sounds killer doing it. It retains all the animosity and ferocity of their earlier work (and they even rerecorded the classic songs AND made them work in the new album’s context. Incredible), while still not being too polished like some bands from the period. Its blistering. A swansong. A love letter to the genre and to all of us. I'm so happy I get to live in a timeline where this albums exists
