Hell's yes.  I was absolutely dying to hear and review this new split LP featuring the first recorded output from NJ's What Of Us and the latest recorded material from Indiana's Coma Regalia.  What Of Us is a four piece band featuring members of In First Person, Black Kites, Less Life, Capacities, Au Revoir and Guidelines.  What Of Us play a volatile and chaotic style of music that incorporates elements of hardcore, punk, and screamo.  Musically, What Of Us can be said to be influenced by bands such as Pg. 99, Ampere, Orchid, and other like-minded bands.  On their side of the split, What Of Us offer up eight tracks of volatile and brutal as fuck sounding hardcore, punk, and screamo.  Coma Regalia is a five piece band from Indiana who formed in 2010.  Coma Regalia play a killer style of music that incorporates elements of hardcore, punk, and screamo within their sound.  Musically, Coma Regalia can be loosely compared to bands such as The Saddest Landscape, Capacities, Beau Navire, and Todos Caeran.  Since their inception in 2010, Coma Regalia have released a prolific amount of material which includes a split 7" with Quantis released in 2010, a split 7" with The Catlin Elm released in 2012, a split cassette with Marital Roles released in 2012, a split 7" with Capacities released in 2012, a split 7" with Laeirs released in 2012, a split 7" with Vowel released in 2012, a three-way split LP with Locktender, Wounded Knee, and Oaken released in 2012, a ten song full-length LP titled En Sperata released in 2012, a split 7" with Book Of Caverns released in 2013, a split 5" with Fox Moulder released in 2014, a split 7" with We Had A Deal released in 2014, a split 10" with Marcy, Mothlight, and Fleshborn released in 2014, a split 8" with Eros+Massacre in 2015, a split flexi with Kaoru Nagisa released in July of 2015, and a double 7" titled Ours Is The Cause Most Noble in August of 2015, a split 7" with Youth Novel in April of 2016, and a split with Gillian Carter in June of 2016.  On their side of the split, Coma Regalia offer up ten tracks of killer hardcore, punk, and screamo.  Overall, this is an amazing split and both bands offer up top notch material for this LP.  Highly recommended!  Enjoy!
