Almost exactly five years ago, the Los Angeles screamo band Novolascura released the jagged, expressionistic album As We Suffer From Memory And Imagination. With that record, Novolascura earned a rep as one of the fiercest, most intense bands on a national scene full of fierce and intense bands. They’ve been fully present since then, touring and appearing on the 2023 compilation Balladeers, Redefined, so it’s a little surprising to learn that Nuvolascura went five years without another album. But the five years is up, and the new Novolascura album is here.
