Converge is a band I don’t talk about nearly enough here. Since having my ears torn to shreds by their album Jane Doe a good handful of years ago they have reined as one of the best post-hardcore/grindcore/tech-metal bands around in my eyes. While many bands are able to capture the same level of technicality and brutality none deliver the passion and emotional side quite like Converge does. Listening to any of their albums along their long career prove that no other band can personify rage and aggression quite like they can. On their new album, All We Love We Leave Behind, it’s business as usual as ~40 minutes of blistering metal look to crush the listeners aural senses with unbridled chaos reigned in with bouts of stellar musicianship and many nods to many genres to keep a playthrough engaging and worthy of repeat listens.
