Nu-Core is the genre on the tip of everyone’s tongue right now, and Pennsylvanian outfit Tallah are leading the charge. Fronted by Justin Bonitz, whose versatile and unhinged vocal stylings have attracted the attention of the masses, and backed by second generation drummer Max Portnoy, the two musicians have combined their musical and artistic influences to create a 13 track nu-metal-meets-hardcore opus that is set to win the title of ‘Album of the Year’.

Tallah have further cemented their reputation as the band to Make Metal Disturbing Again, and having recently amassed over 1 million plays of their singles on Spotify, have  now announced how they will celebrate their album release.

Tallah will perform ‘Matriphagy’ in full on Thursday October 2nd at  3pm EDT, 6PM EST and 11pm BST. The #ONEANDTHESAME performance takes place at Willow Glenn State Penitentiary and was filmed by Sunny of Hate5Six, renowned for his work with Hardcore acts Code Orange and more.

Thematically, Justin has revealed over the course of a series of concept videos that Tallah’s album is about psychological and physical abuse, self-mutilation, cannibalism and imprisonment in one’s self.

 “Matriphagy is a concept album about how an overprotective mother pushes her son to the edge of insanity through psychological and physical abuse. Having spent two decades trapped inside a glorified prison, and after some failed rescue/escape attempts, the son, in a state of heavy delirium, does the unforgivable to free himself from his mother’s wicked hold.”

What better way to display the concept than by performing in a prison? Turn up and tune in on Thursday.
