Brand new extended play & the 4th overall from New Orleans, Louisiana emcee/producer Ruby da Cherry. Blowing up as 1/2 of the $uicideboy$ alongside his cousin $crim, they’ve built up an impressively extensive discography over the last decade & even have their own label G*59 Record$ with an ever-growing roster of artists. Tragic Love Songs to Study to & Existential Hymns for the Average Sigma were both enjoyably carefree punk EPs from Ruby, coming off last spring’s Coping Strategies to Combat the Algorithm to give Daily Reminders to Repent from Sin.

“Away from Me, Satan!” after the “¯\_(ツ)_/¯” intro screams over some speedy guitars & drumming about people pissing the day away when they could’ve done significantly more with it whereas “when there’s no more room in hell, the dead will walk the earth” after the “where y’at, duckboy?” skit made for an exciting single blending easycore, post-hardcore, metalcore & emo-pop asking for the Holy Ghost to show him hope & the end being near.

After the “where y’at, duckboy??” skit, “the inevitable fall & decline of myself” starts the 2nd half of Daily Reminders to Repent from Sin. dissing Moloch just before “a love as strong as death” after the “where y’at, duckboy???” skit encourages a love interest to hold his hand so they can stay for as long as they can. After the “where y’at, duckboy????” skit, the final song “high tide in the snake’s nest” finishes things off with a metalcore outro.

I still believe Runaway a couple weeks earlier would’ve been a lot more enjoyable if $crim had removed all the unnecessary filler on there & despite enjoying Daily Reminders to Repent from Sin a tad more, it’s my least favorite punk EP that Ruby da Cherry has done. The songs itself are fine since he’s going beyond easycore to dabble with metalcore, post-hardcore & emo pop. However, the voicemails in-between every single track are starting to get annoying.

Score: 3/5
