Ottawa-based post-punk foursome Daisy are set to unleash their debut LP later this week, but before its official release, Exclaim! is giving you the chance to hear the whole thing.
 
Called The Ones We Leave Behind, the record hears the band attempting to capture their live energy to tape, delivering a 30-minute homage to the music they loved growing up. A press release describes the result as "a beautiful cacophony of emotion clashing with the limitation of human form."
 
Heavy guitar, ruthless percussion blend with guttural growls and piercing screams, propelling the listener on a vicious sonic journey across nine new songs. Blasts of hard-hitting sound are softened in spots by experimental melodic breaks, though the band never lose their edge.
 
You can hear The Ones We Leave Behind in its entirety below before it officially arrives on October 16.
