A highly positive review of Shank's album Create/Devour praising its post-hardcore mix of hardcore, metal and melodic elements. The reviewer highlights technical ability, passion and compositional maturity while noting minor roughness in clean vocals and choruses. The album is described as intense, varied and emotionally moving. The band is placed within the Apulian (Salento/Lecce) scene and compared to influential acts like Converge and Glassjaw.

For:Fans of post-hardcore, hardcore, metal and math-influenced rock; listeners of Converge, Glassjaw, Cave In and related bands.

 "Create/Devour" is a gem that should not be cast before swine, it is an album to discover through listens, capable of evoking emotions and raising adrenaline, throwing itself and contorting between post-hardcore and metal, melody and punk attitude, screaming a guitar riffing that borders on math.
