The Bite That Grows Up

When Great Falls released their NEUROT RECORDINGS debut OBJECTS WITHOUT PAIN in 2023, it sounded like a nuclear explosion, one of the most crushing and despondent albums ever to come out of the Pacific Northwest. Drawing favorable comparisons to artists like KEN MODE, CHAT PILE and OLD MAN GLOOM, it showed clear influence from seminal artists throughout it's history, alongside a progression all their own. Between legendary live performances at Roadburn in 2025, Northwest Terror Fest in 2026, direct support on BOTCH's final European tour and a recent US stint with heavyweight juggernauts PRIMITIVE MAN, the band reteamed with Scott Evans (NEUROSIS, SUMAC, SHEARLING) for their follow-up. Before going into the studio, they aimed for a tamer counterpart to their previous record, like the fallout after an atom bomb. The result, their new album THE BITE THAT GROWS UP, turned out to be one of the most vicious, brutal, and uncompromising albums of the year.
