Perilisium Cantos was a hardcore band from San Fransisco, California that was active from 1995-1996. The band contained members of
Shroomunion (Mark Rodgers),
Indian Summer (Eyad Kalieh) and Agents Of Satan (Frank Marchi). Perilisium Cantos brilliantly mixed elements of hardcore, noise and "emo" to create an incredibly unique and refreshing addition to the 90s D.I.Y hardcore scene. They created sprawling, complex and experimental songs that displayed each members musical prowess and creativity; its completely criminal that this 5 song 12" was vaulted for nearly 30 years before being released. Only the song "Switches" was released when the band was active, on the incredibly stacked "I Can't Live Without It" compilation.
Perilisum Cantos is a band that demands recognition, being a supergroup of talent from the 90s hardcore scene and creating an incredibly impressive and solid lineup of tracks. This is one of 2021's most unhearalded releases and I wholeheartedly reccomend giving this one a listen if you are a fan of the "emocore" genre in any capacity. Mark Rodgers really blessed every band that he was a part of and Eyad Kalieh and Frank Marchi demonstrate perfectly, how incredibly talented they are at their respective instruments.
