Over the past decade Gouge Away have steadily grown from South Florida punk upstarts into one of the most viscerally compelling bands in modern aggressive music. Their sound has evolved into a diamond sharp blend of urgent hardcore, unhinged noise rock, and unexpected catchiness, and on "Figurine" the group push it further than ever before. Captured by Larry Crane at the legendary Jackpot! Recording Studio in Portland, WA, "Figurine" is powered by a skyscraper riff somewhere between Pixies and Pissed Jeans and vocalist Christina Michelle's agile voice spinning from roar to whisper on a dime.
