JESUS PIECE Issues “Punish” At Cvlt Nation

With the premiere of “Punish,” Cvlt Nation declares, “It was a long wait for a full length from JESUS PIECE. This record was absolutely worth the wait. Only Self is hardcore music at its finest. The songwriting, the metallic production, the lyrical content – it’s all so cohesive. When I first learned who JP was, I was glued to the internet for a few weeks watching live videos of a band that is uncompromisingly heavy.
