Kilbourne debuts her label Hammerhead Records and its first release Panopticon, a two tracker by the New York hardcore icon. The title track kicks off with a sinister saw riff and chattering hihats before descending into nazgûl-screeching madness. Rolly Polly sees Kilbourne dropping the tempo, playing with more groovy and repetitive sounds to psychedelic effect. The Panopticon EP is Kilbourne’s vision of hardcore today, and an exciting taste of the music to come from Hammerhead.
