EP Review: Death Goals – Eulogies (Self Released)

Emotional and melodic hardcore/queercore band, Death Goals are back with their first release since the departure of long-term drummer and vocalist George Milner. It’s called ‘Eulogies’, and the EP will be released on November 13th, 2026.

It might not be too much of a surprise to learn that Eulogies is an EP filled with emotion. The kind that can feel overwhelming at times, the kind that we all deal with at one time or another, and the kind that we all just need to let out occasionally. Death Goals let their emotion out here, but in more melodic fashion. Delivering two extremely potent efforts that draw from different ranges of the emotional spectrum.

Pt. 1 is a slow, focused, reflection on the passing of loved ones and how they might be reunited in some way afterwards. It ends in punchy fashion, which allows the track to smoothly transition into Pt. 2, a track with anger and frustration at its core. The instrumentation is discombobulating, and Harry’s vocals are suitably impassioned, but it’s when things speed up that the maelstrom of post hardcore infused intensity really takes hold.

Whereas Pt.1 is a track to sink into, Pt. 2 is a track to let loose too, and it freaking slaps. It’s great to have them back, and long may they continue to produce music that hits with this much force. Few bands can leave such an impression in four minutes, but that’s the power of Death Goals.
