Zao / Yashira "Split"

Freshly repressed after being out of print for more than 5 years, here we have the legendary hardcore juggernauts Zao teaming up for a split 7" release with touring pals (and Good Fight Music alum) Yashira.

This split is a perfect example of how a release like this can exemplify the best of both bands and give new listeners to either group a perfect starting point to understand how each approach their craft. The Zao side hits all that a seasoned listener would crave: Daniel Weyandt's tortured howls, dynamic guitar work, slick riffs and some clean vocals peppered in, giving us a little texture. The Yashira side shows them at their finest, blending more straightforward metalcore with touches of doom and ambience - it's a six minute rollercoaster of genre-bending heaviness & a perfect compliment to Side A.

This split will scratch that itch that you've been having for heavy music, regardless of what niche side of metal you're craving. These two bands manage to cover all of the bases in the course of less than 10 minutes!
