ALBUM OF THE WEEK: Rong - "Live At New Alliance"
Existing decidedly on the fringes, Rong’s explosive sound splices and dices together bits and pieces of noise rock, art punk, post-hardcore, and experimental metal to form something delightfully alien. The abrasion is tantamount, an oozing eruption of caterwauling guitars, jaw dropping rhythms, and vocals yelped with fury and resolve.

Rong + The Cost Ov Living - "Rong // The Cost Ov Living" | Album Review
Mutual Aid Records is a Massachusetts-based DIY label that is dedicated to highlighting hidden gems in niche and alternative music, much of these artists being based in the Northeastern US as well. One of the more recent releases is a wildly experimental split between Rong and The Cost ov Living, who are currently active in the MA scene.

Rong - "Coincidence" Video | Post-Trash Premiere
Just in time for their on-going tour with Sea Moss, Rong return with a split EP together with Massachusetts’ The Cost Ov Living, released via Mutual Aid Records. The songs are brutal and sludgy at times, piercing with distortion as they break into a sprint, the whole thing always threatening to collapse, but instead shifting directions mid collision.
