On a norm, I don't listen to music this abrasive, because it makes me feel like I'm pissed off all of the time. With that being said, I think you all are doing a great job! In other words, I like the music, but I would have to be in the mood for it. I don't mind how your lead vocalist sounds, because I can still understand him. No disrespect to Shadows Fall, but I wish their lead vocalist would lay back a little more from the growling, like this lead singer does. Your vocalist is abrasive, but he's not going overboard.
On another note, I've noticed the band is using some backing vocals, so keep that up. Bands are not using that enough these days. Keep adding some backing, along with the lead vocalist, and you all would sound killer!
In conclusion, I give you and your boys props! Great job for an up and coming band!
