Growth Without End

Vinyl LP pressing. Pyrrhon's sophomore album - The Mother of Virtues - was a perplexing endeavor, for more than just the simple fact that it was extraordinarily dissonant and chaotic. Their newest offering, a brief EP entitled Growth Without End, confirms my suspicion that it was just a matter of time before Pyrrhon grew into their new style, improving upon all facets of their ambitious but hit-and-miss opus of last year. Growth Without End sees Pyrrhon further stripping back the death metal constituents of their sound, opting for a style that is now primarily mathcore. Doug Moore boasts some remarkably versatile vocals, ranging from said gutturals to high-register screams, often blending his false chord projections with a somewhat "clean" shout, resulting in a throatier, more percussive delivery.
