The In the Hollows 7" is sweet. Shook Ones album rules. RxB's is pretty subtle. Gatorface EP is cool.

Hey All,

My project is called YesMisterBloodVessel. I am born and live in New York City. The debut album is called Racing The Relapse. The best way I can describe the album's sound is a mixture of Filter / IamX / Depeche Mode / Nine Inch Nails / The Beatles--quite eclectic! I would be extremely grateful for anyone who takes the time to review the album for Absolute Punk.

Take care & Rock on!

Cheers,

Christian
