All These Darlings And Now Me, the latest full-length from experimental hardcore/mathcore unit SUNFLOâER, is out now and streaming via Dark Trail Records!
Formed in 2010 and hailing from Potsdam, New York SUNFLOâER (SUN+FLOW+UR) has released two EPs on their own label before signing with Magnetic Eye Records in 2015, which saw the release of their first LP, 1963. The band was also featured on Magnetic Eyeâs Helmet tribute, Meantime [Redux] and Pink Floyd tribute, The Wall [Redux]. For their second LP, No Hell, SUNFLOâER partnered with Ottawaâs Noise Salvation for the release of a CD/âZine and published the vinyl through their own imprint. Now, with the addition of vocalist, Jeff Lyszczarz, SUNFLOâER unveils their third full length album, All These Darlings And Now Me. The band utilizes a dynamic and hectic approach to hardcore that takes cues from Converge, La Dispute, Cursed, Circle Takes The Square, and Dangers.
All These Darlings And Now Me was recorded, mixed, and produced by Urian Hackney at The Box in Burlington, Vermont, and mastered by Zach Weeks at GodCity Studio in Salem, Massachusetts.
The record, which initially premiered at both New Noise Magazine and BrooklynVegan, is now available on CD, LP, and digital formats. Grab your copy at THIS LOCATION where the record can be streamed in full

ââ¦a swaggering, razor-sharp collection of rock & roll-infused mathcore that falls somewhere between Every Time I Die, Refused, and The Bronx, and if that sounds up your alley, you’ll probably find that SUNFLO’ER do a ton of justice to that kind of stuff. It’s a big step up from No Hell, an invigorating take on a great sound, and a whole lot of fucking fun.â — BrooklynVegan
ââ¦another impressive offering from a relatively hidden gem in todayâs diverse hardcore scene, one that could and should mark SUNFLOâER out as an inspiring and influential prospect of their own.â â Distorted Sound
âOn All These Darlings And Now Me SUNFLOâER combine mathcore and post-hardcore into a harsh-yet-catchy 27 minutes. Imagine a mix of Converge, Every Time I Die, KEN Mode, and Circle Takes The Square, and youâll be on the right lines.â â Wonderbox Metal
âMusically, SUNFLO’ER presents their most reflective and mature album to date. But that doesn’t mean that All These Darlings And Now Me isn’t fun. Quite the contrary⦠Think Hang The Bastard’s dark hardcore, Totally Unicorn’s mathcore, and Celeste’s post hardcore. For almost half an hour, SUNFLO’ER skilfully always hit the bull’s eye between breakdowns and time changes.â â Betreutesproggen.de (translated)
