LP – Limited Edition Green and Yellow with Black Splatter Vinyl (Fourth Pressing – 2025). As Knocked Loose chipped away at what would become their third album, they felt the pressure from all sides. Internally, there was the need to challenge themselves as songwriters while retaining the merciless intensity and unflinching honesty that have always been their calling cards. Externally, there was a whole new set of eyes on the hard-touring Louisville quintet, following a banner year in which theyd brought their underground-seasoned sound to some of the worlds biggest stages, finding themselves the unlikely viral darlings of both Coachella and Bonnaroo. The creative process was arduous, with the band writing close to 40 songs across a span of four years before locking in the 10 tracks that make up new LP You Wont Go Before Youre Supposed To. But in the end, vocalist Bryan Garris, guitarists Isaac Hale and Nicko Calderon, bassist Kevin Otten and drummer Kevin Pac Sun Kaine honed a diverse, cohesive and savagely intense album that both sums up the massive strides theyve taken during their decade as a band, and asserts their boundless potential going forward. Raging lead single Blinding Faith skillfully wields whiplash tempo changes in service of a scathing indictment of religious groupthink. Dont Reach for Me combines the bands signature frenzied attack with deliberate catchiness and refreshing sonic variety. While Suffocate, featuring pop-meets-metal trailblazer Poppy, contrasts an oppressive heaviness befitting the title with a dance-y, syncopated groove and, midway through, the most concussive reggaeton rhythm youve ever heard.
