New Goes Cube - "Grinding The Knife Blade"

thubmnail icon: New Goes Cube - "Grinding The Knife Blade"

With "Grinding The Knife Blade," Goes Cube have deviated from their more customary song titling approach -- see "Song 57," Song 46," "Song 30" -- creating one of only a few of their tracks that doesn't include the word "song" or a numerical designation. Congratulations, sirs. It's also our first taste of the New York trio's forthcoming 13-track Another Day Has Passed, their first full-length for new label home The End. Even with the new titling approach, they haven't shifted the unpretentious hard rock, a catchy, heavy, angular and knotty sound more than suitable for fans of Torche, Foo Fighters, Big Business, Unwound, etc. Or, well, fans of Goes Cube.

Has anyone listened to this kind of music since 1998? Anyone outside of San Dimas, that is?
