America can be a cold and callous place. As vast as it is cruel, the modern living experience is often defined by isolation. Pushing back against the doldrums and reaching for community, Massa Nera and Quiet Fear release the collaborative album, "Quatro Vientos // Cinco Soles."

New Jersey's Massa Nera and Los Angeles' Quiet Fear draw from their lived experiences to push the borders of introspective, impassioned hardcore and screamo. Meant as a cohesive piece of art, the bands worked to highlight rhythm and other non-traditional elements of hardcore without forgoing aggression. Taking 90s-inspired screamo as their foundation and updating the style for a modern audience, they weave elements of post rock, mathcore, and even Latin rhythms into their sound.

Balancing vulnerability and fragility with moments of extreme emotional catharsis, Massa Nera and Quiet Fear effortlessly tie together the metallic chaos of Converge, Envy's most triumphant moments, and the emotional intensity of Pg.99, while creating something new and refreshing of their own. Comes packaged in a full color jacket with poster insert and limited colored vinyl.
