CHAINLINKS 070: Sara G of Lockslip

Chainlinks is a series we started back in 2017 to give our friends a space to share the stuff currently inspiring them — music, film, books, or anything else they wanted to recommend to the world.

For Chainlinks 070, we have Lockslip vocalist Sara G. From Los Angeles, Lockslip delivers a punishing brand of hardcore that is equally passionate and complex. Relentless blastbeats, spiraling melodies, world-ending breakdowns, and G's cathartic vocals place Lockslip in its own space between mathcore and metalcore, likely to excite fans of Cloud Rat and Converge. The band's new album, The Conversation, drops November 6th on Bleakhouse, the label founded by King Yosef, and features guest appearances by Yosef as well as Todd Jones (Nails) and Kathryn Edwards (Thirdface).

Sara also fronts the band Entry and tours the world selling merch for the likes of Ceremony. Welcome, Sara...

1) Triviality Podcast

This is my favorite podcast. I started listening to this when I was training for an in-person Jeopardy audition. (I sadly did not make it onto the show). It’s trivia mixed with a bit of comedy and silliness. This is such a fun podcast to pass the time alone, or for a long drive with the band. I’ve crushed 7 hours at a time just flying through these episodes. It really just brings me a lot of joy and also inspires me to keep learning for the sake of learning.

2) Dummy - do you love the color of the sky?

Dummy is a band I’ve known for years, and I’ve loved everything they’ve released. They just put out a new record, do you love the color of the sky?, and somehow they’ve managed to outdo themselves. I really just think they’re so special, and I want everyone to know about them. I have had this record on repeat for weeks now. "Song of Mana," "Heaven’s What You Make of It," "N of 1," and "Squeaky Wheel" are my favorite songs on the album currently.

3) Verity Den

Verity Den is a band from North Carolina. I don’t know how to describe them other than soft, nice music. I’ve been on tour for the past two months with the band Ceremony (selling merch), and they played some of those shows. I really, really loved them. There’s something so cool about seeing a band live for the first time and being captured by their energy. I already can’t wait to see them again.

BODY STUFF - "Cry"

BODY STUFF releases music video for acoustic ballad "Cry"

Body Stuff has released an official music video for the song "Cry," from the new album, Body Stuff 5.

Stream the "Cry" video, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rcGKohF2H9M

An acoustic ballad laced with church bells and synth, "Cry" is an outlier on an album otherwise filled with hard rocking post-punk, but lyrically it expresses the theme of surrender that runs through much of Body Stuff's work. "I want to cry, I want to cry, but the world spins around and time flies by, and out here in the field it's all right," sings frontman Curran Reynolds.

Released in October, Body Stuff 5 was engineered and mixed by longtime Body Stuff collaborator Ryan Jones and mastered by Ted Jensen (Madonna, Metallica). The album follows three EPs and one full-length, released steadily since 2013 when Reynolds first launched the project. A review in the October 2026 issue of The Wire Magazine states: "Amid all the gloom, doom and aesthetics of grit around us, it's refreshing to hear a rock album that wears hope on its sleeve without pretending the world isn't on fire. Bob Mould did it last year with 'Here We Go Crazy'; now Curran Reynolds brings the same iridescent zeal to his long-running solo project's 'Body Stuff 5.' This is a big, bold record, decidedly of and from New York City, with melodic new wave elements clashing against harder metallic riffs and Reynolds's voice riding triumphantly..."

The "Cry" music video consists of live Body Stuff footage shot by Jackie Roman at TV Eye in NYC.

In addition to the new album, Reynolds has released a book titled Body Stuff World Peace, compiling all the Body Stuff lyrics to date.

LOCKSLIP - "I'm the Same"

LOCKSLIP: metallic hardcore squad address mental health via new single "I'm the Same,” drop vampiric video for Halloween

From Los Angeles, California, metallic hardcore juggernaut Lockslip has released "I'm the Same," the third single from the upcoming new album, The Conversation.

Stream the official music video, here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=On7QHaKXaOs

"I'm the Same” is a two-minute burst of relentless blasting and cathartic vocals, crowned by a spiraling, wistful guitar melody that tips the hat to the band's screamo influences. It is a juxtaposition of elements – the punishing and the pensive – that brings to mind contemporaries such as Cloud Rat and Converge.

Vocalist Sara G gives this insight into the song's candid lyrics: "My family has a history of mental illness being left untreated for far too long. Because of this, we had a pretty tumultuous household for most of my life. I have fears with my own mental health, that I may end up that way, but I am aware enough to know some of the signs. I am constantly evaluating my own thoughts and actions."

For the official "I'm the Same" music video, the band teamed up with digital artist Freeculture.api, who delivered a deliciously retro, Y2K-era aesthetic, depicting a chilling vampiric tale, just in time for Halloween. Drummer Noah Baxter elaborates: "Freeculture.api is a digital artist I’ve followed for years now, part of this renaissance of low poly and early 3D revival in computer art and animation. Growing up, I spent a lot of time in these 3D digital spaces, sometimes surrounded by others but more often alone with my thoughts, so when this song came together and I read Sara's lyrics it just made sense to me, as a way to visually describe the alien and abstract way we actually inhabit our own heads.”

Coming November 6th, new album The Conversation was recorded and mixed by Noah Baxter and mastered by Nick Townsend (Nails, Angel Du$t), and features guest appearances by Todd Jones (Nails), Kathryn Edwards (Thirdface), and Bleakhouse label owner King Yosef. Eleven tracks in all, The Conversation is a series of metallic hardcore stampedes, marked by breakneck drumming, world-ending breakdowns, and lustrous melodic passages appearing like sunlight through storm clouds. While the quintet cruises through multiple time signatures and wields fiery chops, the shredding is done in service of something bigger. Lockslip's real power lies in its emotional impact – a sense of bleeding-heart urgency and runaway-train momentum. Sara G delivers every word with absolute conviction, as if drawing from a bottomless well of horror. "The state of the world is complex, it’s dark, and it’s unpredictable, so we want to write music that reflects those anxieties," she states.

GUHTS - Duality Reality

GUHTS: post-metal conjurers drop "Holy Hell" single, pay tribute to horror classic "Possession"; new album coming in 2027

New York post-metal band GUHTS has released new single "Holy Hell" alongside an official, Halloween-themed music video.

"Holy Hell" appears on the quartet's sophomore album, Duality Reality, coming in 2027 on Silent Pendulum Records.

Stream the "Holy Hell" music video, here: 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JuECez6OhM

A spellbinding track that rumbles with all the hypnotic power of Julie Christmas fronting Gojira, new single "Holy Hell" serves as a perfect introduction to GUHTS's forthcoming new album. Ethereal and devastating, "Holy Hell" holds a vise-like grip on its listener's consciousness for five-and-a-half minutes straight, validating CVLT Nation's recent description of the band: "Visceral, post-sludge-rock ... Walls of heavy melody that trap me in a sonic room full of beauty, chaos, and righteous rage."

GUHTS vocalist Amber Gardner offers these thoughts on her band's sound and vision: "It’s not background noise. It’s something you enter into. Something you feel in your body. GUHTS is an emotional soundscape, heavy as fuck, but with a big touch of hope running through it. I'm interested in all the nuances of being human: grief, rage, love, loss, beauty, tension, connection, transformation, darkness and light."

For the "Holy Hell" music video, Gardner and her bandmates – guitarist Scott Prater, bassist Daniel Martinez, and drummer Aidan Schmid – found inspiration in a work of art that matches their own intensity: the "Holy Hell" video is a homage to Andrzej Zulawski's 1981 horror classic, Possession, recreating that film's harrowing train station scene with Gardner embodying the tormented character originally played by Isabelle Adjani.

"We were inspired by the subway scene in Possession," says Gardner. "The mind becoming fragmented, repeating patterns we haven’t recognized, and how I see that playing out across society. We filmed it during rush hour at the Beacon, New York, train station, with me screaming in the walkway with fake milk we had to clean up afterward. Almost nobody flinched and only one person checked on me, which became one of the most disturbing parts of making the video. People walking by or sitting there, waiting for the train, were so absorbed in their phones, they seemed disconnected from the reality happening right in front of them."

Gardner and Prater are not only musical collaborators, they are a married couple. Having first made music together in the band Witchkiss, the duo began experimenting in new ways in 2020, laying the foundation for what would become GUHTS. Their efforts culminated in the debut full-length, Regeneration, released in 2024. Gardner recounts: "We spent almost a year just messing around with different microphones, vocal layers, singing, screaming, failing and trying again. There weren’t any rules because we weren’t trying to create a particular kind of band. We were just curious about what was possible. Instead of trying to force it into something familiar, we got curious and followed it. And I think that’s still what GUHTS is. We’re still learning, experimenting and discovering what’s possible."

Engineered and mixed by Andrew Schneider (Cave In, KEN mode) and mastered by Alan Douches (Mastodon, Chelsea Wolfe), sophomore album Duality Reality is a series of nine songs mixing thunderous, ominous metal with Gardner's captivating vocals, a pairing that hits like fireworks painting streaks of color across a pitch black sky. The contrasts inherent in GUHTS's sound are what make it so powerful and, as Gardner explains, this embrace of contrasts extends to the lyrics as well: "The album title, Duality Reality, is about the contradiction of being human. We’re interested in what happens when you actually move through an emotion or feeling. What if darkness isn’t something we have to pretend isn’t there, in order to find light? What if rage can coexist with love? What if grief and gratitude can occupy the same body? What if destruction can become the beginning of creation? That tension runs through these songs, heaviness and vulnerability, screaming and melody, chaos and intention, darkness and hope. Because duality is the human experience."

1) Holy Hell
2) Currents
3) April 16th

Out today: BODY STUFF - Body Stuff 5

Body Stuff 5, the sophomore album by Body Stuff, is out today via The Chain.

The solo project of NYC artist Curran Reynolds, Body Stuff's impassioned rock music has been described in the past as "a massive surge of passionate energy... like a hardcore Bruce Springsteen" (The Wire Magazine). New album Body Stuff 5 was engineered and mixed by longtime Body Stuff collaborator Ryan Jones and mastered by Ted Jensen (Madonna, Metallica).

In addition to the new album, Reynolds has released a book titled Body Stuff World Peace, compiling all the Body Stuff lyrics to date.

–The Wire Magazine

"Body Stuff – a project that dips into goth, new romantic, post-punk and classic alternative, by a metalhead with an eye for pop sensibility."
–Decibel Magazine

"[Body Stuff 5] finds Reynolds delivering another dose of honest, soul-stirring music. It is an album he needed to make."
–New Noise Magazine

"Body Stuff is tapping into the steady, stripped-down rock of my youth with the heavy slap of a singular industrial beat, the uplifting drone of a guitar riff, and the growl of the vocals. This is the kind of music that drives you forward, no matter what, epic and uplifting."
–CVLT Nation

"Every reference I’ve tried to hang on this New York, New York, trio feels foolish. Bruce Springsteen aligning with Suicide and discovering Sisters of Mercy? OK, I guess. The soundtrack to some gritty Italo flick about urban decay? Sure, why not. And yet, Body Stuff rebuffs those comparisons, besides being, at its heart, a rock band with a post-punk edge."
–Wolf's Week

Out today: SEMUTA - Thoughtless/Dreamless

Thoughtless/Dreamless, the new album by Semuta, is out today on Accident Prone Records.

Recorded and mixed by Scott Evans (Neurosis, Kowloon Walled City) and mastered by Brad Boatright (Portrayal of Guilt, Torche), Thoughtless/Dreamless sees guitarist/vocalist Benjamin Caragol and drummer Ben Stoller deliver their greatest work to date.

With 2024's debut album, Glacial Erratic, Caragol and Stoller established a mournful strain of sludgy post-metal, marked by enthralling songcraft and passionate execution. Two years down the road, the Portland, Oregon pair have grown more deeply united as a musical unit and on the new album their efforts crystallize into a sprawling yet purposeful work of art. Caragol's exceptional voice shines, a rich, soaring wail, as the duo travels in unison, hammering out its glistening, moody metal, and gradually building tension in various time signatures. Where the debut album explored political failures, Thoughtless/Dreamless turns inward, toward personal themes of hope and disappointment.

With only four songs adding up to almost 40 minutes of music, Thoughtless/Dreamless is a musical feat that will likely grab the ears and hearts of fans of progressive rock, post-metal, and the more exploratory fringe of the extreme metal spectrum.

"Semuta, from Portland, Oregon, are making music that almost feels like you’re in a kaleidoscope... The progressive elements evoke King Crimson type vibes with an atmospheric doom tonality that is reminiscent of Isis around Oceanic."
–Audioeclectica

"An entrancing collection of dense, diverse tracks filled with quiet-loud dynamics and effortless playing."
–Decibel

"Semuta have come into their own on Thoughtless/Dreamless... Instead of doing Glacial Erratic Part 2, the band learned enough in the last two years to become more complete songwriters."
–Heavy Music HQ

"Proggy, sludgy post-metal... Four long songs adding up to almost 40 minutes."
–Idioteq

"A four-track, 40-minute dreamer that feels like a thunderous sky prepared to douse the earth."

"The experience of weaving your way through this [album] is wholly rewarding... There's so much to appreciate on here... The musicianship is absolutely excellent."

BODY STUFF - "Death Song"

BODY STUFF releases "Death Song" single and music video

"Death Song," the fourth single from Body Stuff's new album, Body Stuff 5, is out now.

Stream the song on Spotify, here: https://open.spotify.com/album/3BRJSkpJd96EcivCiFRdoi

The solo project of NYC artist Curran Reynolds, Body Stuff's impassioned rock music has been described as "a hardcore Bruce Springsteen" (The Wire Magazine) and “Springsteen fully embracing his Suicide influence" (Stereogum). A profile in the November 2026 issue of Decibel Magazine calls it "New Romantic, post-punk and classic alternative, by a metalhead with an eye for pop sensibility."

Coming October 16th, sophomore album Body Stuff 5 was engineered and mixed by longtime Body Stuff collaborator Ryan Jones and mastered by Ted Jensen (Madonna, Metallica).

New single "Death Song" is a heavy waltz, propelled by a growling bassline and moody organ, and building toward a climactic ending. Shot by Reynolds on a rooftop in Brooklyn, the music video stars Blondie guitarist Andee Blacksugar who also performed the majority of the guitars on Body Stuff 5.

Reynolds states: "'Death Song' looks at death as a transformation. It is dedicated to my friend Gene Fowler, whose body was found on the street here in NYC in the spring of 2022 and whose death remains a mystery to me.”

Body Stuff will celebrate the release of the new album with the Body Stuff 5 album release show, October 9th at TV Eye in Queens, New York, where Reynolds will be backed by a live band that includes Blacksugar and drummer Ken Schalk (Candiria). The bill also features Today Is The Day and Statiqbloom.

LOCKSLIP - "Vengeance (You'll Be Seen By Your God)"

LOCKSLIP: LA hardcore outfit calls out abusers in power on new single "Vengeance (You'll Be Seen By Your God)"; music video streaming now

Los Angeles crushers Lockslip have released new single "Vengeance (You'll Be Seen By Your God).”

"Vengeance (You'll Be Seen By Your God)" is the second single to be revealed from the band's upcoming new album, The Conversation, coming November 6th on Bleakhouse.

Stream the official music video, here:

Pre-order the album, here:

https://bleakhouse.co/pages/lockslip
https://lockslip.bandcamp.com/album/the-conversation

"Vengeance (You'll Be Seen By Your God)” exemplifies Lockslip's style: a metallic hardcore stampede, marked by breakneck drumming, world-ending breakdowns, and lustrous melodic passages appearing like sunlight through storm clouds. While the quintet cruises through multiple time signatures and wields fiery chops inspired by the likes of The Dillinger Escape Plan, the shredding is done in service of something bigger. Lockslip's real power lies in its emotional impact – a sense of bleeding-heart urgency and runaway-train momentum that brings to mind the great Converge. Vocalist Sara G delivers every word with absolute conviction, as if drawing from a bottomless well of horror. "The state of the world is complex, it’s dark, and it’s unpredictable, so we want to write music that reflects those anxieties," says G.

On "Vengeance (You'll Be Seen By Your God),” a song condemning abusers, she screams: "Hide behind good deeds while you sow the seeds / You’ll be seen by your god / Burying the truth, altering the youth / You’ll be seen by us all."

"A recurring theme throughout this album is one of consequences," she states. "This song was inspired by someone close to me who survived abuse while in the Boy Scouts. This led me to learn of the close connection between the Boy Scouts and the Catholic Church in their efforts to protect themselves against accountability. People in power, so-called righteous people, perpetrating heinous acts against those meant to trust them. Surely if their afterlife is real, they can't escape judgement."

Shot and edited by Harper King, the "Vengeance (You'll Be Seen By Your God)” music video consists of footage from Lockslip's tour of the Pacific Northwest and Canada in August 2026. The video mixes lighthearted moments from the road with scenes of Lockslip's live assault, showing the band tear through the new single as G stalks the stage (or floor), completely immersed in the moment and exuding pure wrath. The band will travel to Gainesville, Florida in October to play the The Fest 24.

Coming November 6th, The Conversation was recorded and mixed by Lockslip drummer Noah Baxter at Dichotic Studios and mastered by Nick Townsend (Nails, Angel Du$t). Eleven tracks in all, the album features guest appearances by Todd Jones (Nails), Kathryn Edwards (Thirdface), and Bleakhouse owner King Yosef.

SEMUTA - "Thoughtless/Dreamless"

SEMUTA: post-metal dynamo releases title track from new album "Thoughtless/Dreamless"

From Portland, Oregon, post-metal duo Semuta has released "Thoughtless/Dreamless," the title track from its upcoming new album, out October 9th on Accident Prone Records.

Pre-order the album, here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IVFFrdGiG1k

Recorded and mixed by Scott Evans (Neurosis, Kowloon Walled City) and mastered by Brad Boatright (Portrayal of Guilt, Torche), Thoughtless/Dreamless sees guitarist/vocalist Benjamin Caragol and drummer Ben Stoller deliver their greatest work to date. Decibel Magazine describes the album as "an entrancing collection of dense, diverse tracks filled with quiet-loud dynamics and effortless playing."

Ten minutes in length, the title track begins in a glistening, serene state and slowly builds to an epic, metallic climax, carried along by Caragol's soaring vocals.

Caragol states: “This song is about insomnia. I often wake up in the middle of the night with my mind racing, and am unable to find my way back to sleep. In those moments all I want is to be thoughtless and dreamless, without all the worries about my little life and the world at large."

With 2024's debut album, Glacial Erratic, Caragol and Stoller established a mournful strain of sludgy post-metal, marked by enthralling songcraft and passionate execution. Two years down the road, the pair have grown more deeply united as a musical unit and on the new album their efforts crystallize into a sprawling yet purposeful work of art.

Caragol states: "Thoughtless/Dreamless is our attempt to push the limits of what we can create. We wanted to lean into the more complex and metallic aspects of our band, while also creating more space, atmosphere, and beauty. We wanted to embrace long-form song writing and create something cohesive, with all four songs flowing into one one another to create something seamless and expansive."

JUSTIFICATIONS - "Urge to Kill"

JUSTIFICATIONS: The Red Chord members launch new band, drop first single "Urge to Kill"

"Urge to Kill," the first single from the upcoming debut album by Justifications, is out now.

Stream the official lyric video, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKbQw1vuVvU

Based in Manchester, New Hampshire, Justifications is a new band featuring vocalist Guy Kozowyk and guitarist Kevin Rampelberg, both founding members of The Red Chord, alongside guitarist Mark MacDonald (Austrian Death Machine), bassist Jason Edney, and drummer Tony Hersey. As Justifications, these five deliver a spirited brand of metallic hardcore, bursting with energy and memorable lyrics, recommended highly for fans of Nails, Terror, and Turmoil.

Kozowyk lays out the band's mission statement: "Justifications is intended to be direct and fun. A knee-jerk reaction to the world around us." Rampelberg concurs: "The music is more direct, and I think that naturally allows it to connect with people in a different way."

Recorded by Kevin Billingslea (Lamb of God, Cruel Hand) and mixed and mastered by Zeuss (Hatebreed, Rob Zombie), first single "Urge to Kill" sees the quintet charge out of the gate with an infectious 2-minute blitz, packed with double-bass flurries and a ripping guitar solo. Although Justifications' sound is a far cry from The Red Chord, fans of that band will instantly recognize Kozowyk's commanding voice and colorful lyrics, straddling a line between sarcastic wit and blunt reality. "Your face greets me like an ulcer, starts to wreck my day / I’d rather play in traffic than see your stupid face," he barks on the song's verse, enunciating every word and allowing the message to really transmit. Despite the homicidal tint, "Urge to Kill" is ultimately a song about restraining impulses, not following through with them.

"I was on a mission to deliver lines that sounded abrasive but were also legible," says Kozowyk. "I have a great appreciation for vocalists who are both brutal and can enunciate. If you actually have something to say, I want to hear it."

Justifications will make its live debut on September 19th. Stand by for more show announcements and more details about the debut album, coming in 2027 on Kozowyk's label, Black Market Activities.
