The adjective “nequient” means “not being able”—though it hasn’t seen common usage since the 17th century. The more you know! Chicago hardcore four-piece Nequient released their debut full-length, Wolves at the Door, in May, and Gossip Wolf is sure they’re entirely able to kick up a major D-beat shit storm! Knuckleheads fond of getting rowdy to Converge and Disfear will find plenty of grist for the mill on the walloping tracks “Blast Beats and Cocaine” and “Cat’s Cradle,” where Patrick Conahan’s headlong guitar and Jason Kolkey’s tortured vocals race around each other. On Bandcamp you can buy a CD copy via Nefarious Industries or a small-run cassette via Sassbologna Records. Later this month Nequient head to the east coast for a ten-day tour.
