Abuse/Plague CD

Lies' "Abuse/Plague" CD, released by Southern Lord, vividly embodies the disillusionment prevalent in the alt-rock scene of the mid-2010s. Each track, from "Lifeless" to "Fear Monger," exposes the gritty realities of angst and societal troubles, cementing the album's place in the landscape of a genre increasingly defined by its confrontational nature. This work serves not just as a collection of songs but as a reflection of an era when the boundaries of rock were being fiercely challenged.
