We recently had the extraordinary opportunity to check out the new EP, “Surefire” via Lauren Records, from San Jose-based maximalist Emo band  SUPERWORLD. You can listen to “Surefire” Here.

“Surefire” from SUPERWORLD, is 9 minutes of some of the most explosive music we have heard in a long time. Melodic, Powerful, Authentic, and Emotional. SUPERWORLD is absolutely phenomenal.

Featuring members of Spy, Leer, and Stickup Kid, SUPERWORLD mix hi-energy screamo with the likes of math-rockers like Duck, Little Brother Duck and Covet. As longtime members of the San Jose scene, they cite everything from DIY bands like Matsuri and Shinobu to jazz fusion legends like Casiopea as influences, but ultimately pulse to a beat all their own. 

The energy and unique vibe coming from SUPERWORLD, is truly electrifying and special. From the moment we heard the first chord on opening track “Surefire” we knew we were in the presence of musical greatness. SUPERWORLD , is able to lay down some of the most tasteful riffs we have ever heard … Then they effortlessly bring a thunderous amount of power and emotion.

The impressive, “Dark Upper” is quickly becoming our new favorite song. We can neither confirm or deny that we may have sung along while in line at our local bank.

The closing track ,”Eraser” literally gave us goosebumps. The musicianship in SUPERWORLD, is next level and it is on full display on “Eraser”

SUPERWORLD is playing  GROWING UP IS DUMB festival in Los Angeles this Saturday, April 5,

Tell your friends, tell the world !!! SUPERWORLD is a band you cannot ignore.
