Pillars Of Ivory / Wicca Phase Springs Eternal - split [LP]

The pairing of Wicca Phase Springs Eternal and Pillars of Ivory for a split is pretty perfect. Each project is borne out of trying something just a bit different. For Adam McIlwee, Wicca Phase took his homespun songwriting he perfected on the self-titled Tigers Jaw record and refitted it for emo rap, abandoning guitars for 808s and a computer. Jay Petta of Mindforce on the other hand uses Pillars of Ivory for an entirely different purpose, creating a cocktail of his two favorite things: hardcore and rap. While this combination may seem suspect to those who lived through the worst of rap-rock, Pillars of Ivory instead feels like your best friend making you a mixtape, alternating between a DJ mix and two-minute bursts of NYHC fury.
