From Phoenix, Arizona, Common Wounds delivers soul-stirring, bone-rumbling post-hardcore. Bassist Matt Martinez is an ex-member of death metal punks Landmine Marathon, but Common Wounds operates on the heavy side of post-hardcore and the melodic side of noise rock. The album was recorded by Zachary Rippy (Power Trip) and mixed by Scott Evans (Kowloon Walled City).

"Having already stood out for their raw, gripping sound, the band draws heavy inspiration from genre-defining acts like Jawbox, Chokebore, and Helmet... marked by fierce vocals, straightforward guitar riffs, and a solid instrumental backbone."
–Destroy//Exist
"It’s just damn good post-hardcore. And, like the best albums in that genre, what makes it so good is that it’s so genuine."
–Everything Is Noise
"The members of Common Wounds have played in a variety of different styles of bands, from death metal to hardcore, but it sounds like they've taken a chill pill and listened to some Helmet and now they're ready to bring their first nine-track album."
–Getting It Out
"'Broken Hands' was the album’s first single and its easy to see why it was chosen. Coming across like Helmet’s 'Unsung' with a spattering of Killing Joke’s apocalyptic vibe, this is an absolutely excellent track."
–Ghost Cult
"Matt Martinez has deep roots in the Phoenix underground, with a history that spans decades of playing in DIY venues and contributing to some of the most respected heavy bands to come out of the scene. As the bassist for Common Wounds, his perspective on music goes beyond trends..."
–Idioteq
"With a sound like Fugazi meets later Hot Water Music, Common Wounds find... the tension between abrasiveness and pop structures."
–New Noise
"A big rumbling sonic bulldozer. Strident vocals that bring the pain."
–No Clean Singing
