Ivy - "On My Soul" (Inhumano Records, 2026)
There’s nothing polished about the way IVY approach "On My Soul". And thank fuck for that.
Coming out of Switzerland and born from the ashes of Elizabeth and Life As War, IVY throw hardcore, punk and grunge into four short blasts of ugly, abrasive energy. No overproduction. No unnecessary bullshit. Just riffs, feedback, tension and a vocalist sounding like they actually have something to get out of their system.
“Gunshot” wastes no time setting the tone, while “Static Wave” pushes further into the dirt. “Surrender” brings a darker edge before the title track closes the whole thing down in under two minutes.
The strength of "On My Soul" is its economy. IVY don't overstay their welcome or pad these songs out to pretend they're something bigger than they are. Four tracks. Roughly seven minutes. In, out, leave a fucking mark.
It sounds like hardcore should sound when nobody is worrying about whether it's marketable.
Raw enough to hurt. Catchy enough to stick. Mean enough to demand another spin.
