Until The Eagle Grins

Crownhate Ruin have to be given a bit of credit for never falling into the sludgy stew of distortion their brand of screamy, dramatic rock tends to incline to — so far as this sort of rocking-indie hardcore goes, Until the Eagle Grins is something of a top-notch release. Which is to say: it’s not a wonderful album, but its composition and performance are frequently rather compelling. – Nitsuh Abebe
