CORE., GOLD MOLD & SHINDIG PRESENTS: GILLIAN CARTER
Gillian Carter
You know the proverbial moment when the rug is pulled out from under you? Well, that’s what the music of Gillian Carter sounds like. In a free fall between post-hardcore, blackened noise, punk, metal, and screamo, it repeatedly hits with unexpected intensity. Often, a barrage of percussion barrels forward under grinding guitars and gnashing screams only to stop, turn around, and smack you once more without prejudice. All of this force impressively derives from vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, and producer Logan Rivera accompanied by Bob Caruso [bass] and Tony Oriza [drums]. After earning widespread acclaim fromKERRANG!,Invisible Oranges, No Clean Singing, and more, the Orlando, FL group unleashed their 2022 album,Salvation Through Misery[Skeletal Lightning].
