No Cure Go Full-Length: 'It Is Going To Get Dark' Drops July 10

No Cure's debut full-length, It Is Going To Get Dark, is out July 10 on SharpTone Records — the first LP from the Birmingham, Alabama crew after four years of doing damage on EPs and singles alone.

Who are No Cure?

A straight edge five-piece out of Birmingham, fronted by Blaythe Steuer, grinding metallic hardcore with death metal weight. They surfaced in 2022 with a debut EP and got flagged almost immediately by No Echo, Lambgoat, and Brooklyn Vegan as one of the meanest new units in American heavy music.

Why does this record matter?

Because they built it the slow way. No Cure earned their spot in vans and on floors — tours alongside The Acacia Strain, Cattle Decapitation, Boundaries, and Judiciary. The album's lead single, "Convulsing In The Dark," was billed on announcement as the band's most expansive and emotionally charged material yet. Expansive doesn't mean soft. It means bigger rooms are about to find out.

How hard is this band, really?

As Lambgoat and others reported, Steuer and bassist Jake Murnane were both stabbed breaking up a fight after a set at The Cobra in Nashville — and were back at work within days. Most bands talk about commitment. Some bleed for it and show up Monday anyway.
