Over the next week, a band called FFO: Chillin will open five shows for Joyce Manor and Glitterer. FFO: Chillin hail from Concord, New Hampshire, they have a couple EPs to their name (which is great, by the way), and they play hard, melodic rock music that I guess I'd call post-hardcore? New single "All I Know" is out on Daze, the Connecticut hardcore label that has put out ultra-heavy bands like Pain Of Truth, Torture, and Balmora, but this group's approach is closer to Drug Church and Militarie Gun, where the chunky guitars are deployed in service of ultra-catchy songs. There's some Deftones in their pop-minded low-end churn, too.
Vocalist-bassist Zaq Hollen weighs in on this song:
The older you get the less shit will surprise you. When something you didn’t see coming happens, you say to yourself "should’ve seen it coming." Until you’ve done that loop 500 times over, and it loops back on itself.
Check out the explosive "All I Know" below, where you'll also find those tour dates.
