Beginning life as a tribute to multi-instrumentalist Bryan Kingsley\u2019s father and dedicated to the path of moving forward through life with bright-eyed insistence and purpose, HARM LESS invites listeners to experience joy through volume.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Eschewing the tropes often associated of musical endeavors centered around a single individual \u2013 myopic tones, limited scope, dominant instrumentation \u2013 SAFE\u2019S PACE possesses compositional richness and organic delivery that belie Kingsley\u2019s unaccompanied performance. In fact, the songs on this record feel more natural and less mechanic than what one has come to expect of djent-adjacent music. That is ultimately the goal of HARM LESS, though, to bring emotional engagement and impassioned exuberance to a stylistic melding with a conceptual foundation built on torrid riffing and intense sonic weight.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The result is an album for lovers of loud music who are concurrently seeking a musical experience that reinforces the embracing of euphoria. From the irresistibly upbeat groove of lead single \u201cLOOSE LEAVES\u201d to the full-hearted melodic chug of \u201cMADE OF THE MIST,\u201d from the math-y sway of \u201cUNVIOLENCE\u201d to the massive climactic outpouring of the title track, SAFE\u2019S PACE is a record that grabs you, shakes you, but then offers a warm embrace. It\u2019s the kind of heavy music that\u2019s desperately needed for so many of us in 2019.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Operating from within the welcoming confines of the self-coined descriptor \u201cposi-djent,\u201d Chicago\u2019s HARM LESS appropriates a style known for aggressiveness and technique-worship and re-purposes it with warmth and a welcoming spirit.
