Buffalo, NY Hardcore upstarts SPACED recently joined the Pure Noise Records roster and today they’ve released their new EP, No Escape. These five songs are packed with stomping riffs and psych tinged aggression that offers a perfect introduction to SPACED‘s unique brand of self-proclaimed “far out hardcore”, showcasing both the swirling textures and eye-bulging ferocity that define the group. To celebrate the release SPACED have shared their new music video for How Did It Come To This?, a hard-charging cut of phased-out guitars and groove-laden breakdowns. No Escape pushes the heaviness and their unique effects-drenched textures further than ever before. Recorded by producer Jay Zubricky, the EP captures the band’s freewheeling sonic attitude but also the defiant core at the center of Reyngoudt’s lyrics. SPACED are currently are currently on tour in the US in support of No Escape with Squint, Terror, Sissy Boys and Chico.

“No Escape is about feeling suffocated by our everyday lives. We grind and work our jobs while we’re home, and then grind some more out on the road. All of this is happening while the world feels like a daunting thundercloud over our heads. I wrote the lyrics of this album as an outlet to express my current feelings about what is going on. However, while I feel down about things like that, I still feel lucky to be surrounded by the hardcore community and people who will speak up with me.” (vocalist Lexi Reyngoudt)
