Least of These (Lapeer, MI) 💿 Finding A New Resting Place EP (2000 Demo CD). MI Christian Hardcore.

Metal. Emo. Hardcore. These are the elements that made up the four-piece band from Lapeer, Michigan known as Least of These. Mixing harmony with chaos, and melody with madness, makes for an emotional roller coaster ride. They drew influences from bands such as, Training For Utopia, Embodyment, and Tantrum Of The Muse, but they don’t really try to copy any one of these bands’ sound, but mix them all together into a sound of their own.

Track listing:
1. Painting Vocal Aggression (0:00)
2. Split the Break (4:35)
3. Upward to Begin (6:28)
4. Bleed (9:36)
5. Cloud Nine (14:00)
