Cinnamon Demo ‘24 cassette
Hailing from Albany, New York and heavily influenced by the NBHC scene, CINNAMON plays surprisingly accessible powerviolence infused hardcore. Produced by ORCHID’s Will Killingsworth in his prolific Dead Air Studios, this tape has got some high-ass quality for a demo; there isn’t a blemish to be found. Every element is fully locked in, from the perfectly gravelly vocals to the frenetic drums to the crunchy and thrash-y guitars (especially on opener “Cinntro”). All in all, an impressive first showing—I’d expect to see CINNAMON on some pretty big festival lineups in the not too distant future.
