Driven by machine-made bleats, tongue-in-cheek lyricism, teeth-gritting vocals, and brutal irony,&nbsp;\u2018Gentrification\u2018&nbsp;is a distillation of Street Sects in both style and sonics.&nbsp;\u2018Gentrification IV\u2019 is also coupled with a short story \u2014 \u201cSuspended From Gallery Rails\u201d \u2014 written by Street Sects frontman&nbsp;Leo Ashline.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Watch the A.F.
