Atlanta, Georgia-based mathcore architects THE CALLOUS DAOBOYS today drop their explosive Celebrity Therapist full-length via MNRK Heavy and Modern Static Records.
THE CALLOUS DAOBOYS is charismatic frontman Carson Pace, possessed like a young Mike Patton, guitarists Maddie Caffrey and Dan Hodsdon, bassist Jack Buckalew, drummer Sam Williamson, and violinist Amber Christman. Together the band revives noise rock like theyâre summoning the dead delivering a vibrant and distinctly singular concoction of mathcore, sasscore, and post-hardcore â a sound thatâs unapologetically dense and impenetrable yet confusingly inviting as each song deliriously swerves across stylistic lines.
Reaping critical accolades both Stateside and abroad, Celebrity Therapist shockingly ups the ante of the bandâs lauded 2019 Die On Mars full-length with convulsive time shifts and sadistic precision. Revolver hails the bandâs âtorrential storm of mathcore complexity, soft-jazz Muzak, bossa nova, alternative radio rock, and effects warped violin warping â Kerrang! calls the record âwonderfulâ and âchaotic,â while Stereogum observes, âAtlantaâs THE CALLOUS DAOBOYS make a frantic, freaked-out form of math-damaged metalcore. They recall the late-â90s insanity of The Dillinger Escape Plan and Botch, if either of those bands had ever messed around with pop melodies or employed a violin player.â Adds Distorted Sound, â[Celebrity Therapist] is quite possibly the most essential release in the worlds of post-hardcore, metalcore and whatever else you want to call it that weâve had in the 2020s so far, if not for longer.â
Celebrity Therapist is out now on CD, LP, cassette, and digital formats. Order yours today at THIS LOCATION.

âFor every skronky guitar spasm and rhythmic tongue-twist, thereâs a majestically catchy chorus or a destructively heavy breakdown that actually rewards the ear with something singable or moshable. Itâs not just messy and weird for the hell of it, thereâs an actual purpose and intentionality to its structure, and so many sonic tidbits to sink your teeth into.â â Revolver
“Lofty comparisons like ‘Dillinger by way of Mr. Bungle’ usually do nothing but make me think one thing: ‘buuuullshit.’ But you know what? Iâm eating my words today, because the song youâre about to hear off of their fourth studio effort Celebrity Therapist easily pulls from those influences, plunges what theyâve extracted into a broken centrifuge, and force feeds you the twisted concoction theyâve created. If you like metalcore but think the genre needs better hooks and a violin, then youâve found your new band.â â MetalSucks on âThe Elephant Man In The Roomâ
âTHE CALLOUS DAOBOYS make a frantic, freaked-out form of math-damaged metalcore. They recall the late-â90s insanity of The Dillinger Escape Plan and Botch, if either of those bands had ever messed around with pop melodies or employed a violin player.â â Stereogum
“Wonderful, chaoticâ¦â – Kerrang!
âWith three minutes of shapeshifting metalcore that sounds even more chaotic than anything on Die On Mars, âA Brief Article Regarding Time Loopsâ already proves that the wait has been worth it. It continues the DAOBOYSâ knack for fusing Botch/Converge-style mathcore with Every Time I Die/The Chariot-style theatrics, but even that description canât prepare you for this beast, which also incorporates white noise, a spoken word head trip, a deathcore-ish breakdown, and a complete disregard for traditional song structure.â â BrooklynVegan
âIf your musical tastes even skirt around mathcore, this is a mandatory listen this year, and if this world is just, then Celebrity Therapist should be a staple of mathcore moving forward⦠one of the busiest records Iâve had the pleasure to digest, but they manage to make it work exceptionally.â â Boolin Tunes
ââ¦a behemoth of a record, and it truly is one that only THE CALLOUS DAOBOYS couldâve put together.â â The Alternative
ââ¦quite possibly the most essential release in the worlds of post-hardcore, metalcore and whatever else you want to call it that weâve had in the 2020s so far, if not for longer.â â Distorted Sound
ââ¦a record that manages to be both archetypal and redefining of mathcore as a genre. A cacophonous amalgam of blistering brutality, mind-numbing technicality and neck-snapping twists out of far-left field, Celebrity Therapist sees THE CALLOUS DAOBOYS emerge as perhaps one of the genreâs first newcomers with a level shot at rising to the level of notoriety, influence and excellence as acts like Botch or The Dillinger Escape Plan.â â New Transcendence
âMost hardcore wishes it had as much of an abundance of style and substance as Celebrity Therapist does; even among the best of them, THE CALLOUS DAOBOYS simply feel unstoppable.â – The Soundboard
