Why didn't I discover these guys before?!

[Mattayus]

Absolutely fuckin ADDICTED to this shit lately. Been going a while too and they're right up my street!

That's fuckin crazy. They're the only thing that really stood out for me!
I'm guess I'm just sick of everything even remotely heavy these days being drenched in a metalcore frontman by default. "Oh it's got heavy downtuned guitars? Better scream on it then eh!" I guess that's what made these guys sound fairly.. i dunno.. refreshing I guess. But oh well, I tried!

 

[NoDestiny]

I give my approval!

 

[ratsapprentice]

"Oh it's got heavy downtuned guitars? Better scream on it then eh!"

As opposed to, "Oh it's music? Better have someone do some singing on it?"

Not really a fan of singing as a main feature of music tbh, don't mind it being used sparingly though.....

 

[Mattayus]

Yeah but... that never happens, which is the entire point Nobody does that anymore (we're talking about metal here, btw, obviously it happens everywhere else!) Not with music this heavy anyway, maybe in some of the more popier/punkier metal acts. I dunno. I guess it is more common than I'm making out, but I do get very sick of hearing a band for the first time, my foot's tapping like fuck, then the vocals kick in and it's yet another metalcore screamer. Each to their own I guess but I think this is more up my street*


*more up my street for THIS kind of metal, that is. I fuckin love death metal, but that's where I EXPECT screaming/growling.

 

[ratsapprentice]

I totally understand I hate 99% of screaming/shouting vocalists, which is one reason I hate so many bands that I would probably like if there were no vocals something other than someone with no balls singing or DM vokills (i fucking love that term )

 

[rbkonline1]

I think Empyrios does something like that as well....

 

[JeffTD]

I like it quite a bit, but (oddly enough) nothing is really striking me as incredibly memorable.

 

[The Unavoidable]

I'm digging this shit. Vocals were sweet, way better than alot of the dog shit out there.

This is actually pretty good! And I for one dig the vocals!

As the video and guitarist is concerned though... I wouldn't be caught dead with a Kirk Hamlet sig ESP. That thing is atrocious!

However, I do love the other guitarist's green Carvin -- looks like the same model Joey Tafolla used at one point. \m/

It took me 10 seconds to think it was mixed by Jonas Kjellgren and 15 secs more to check on google that I was right

 

[Wolfeman]

Better than most bands popping up these days.

 

[blueswede]

Vocalist sounds very Swedish. The clean vox = Too gay. Growl vox = ok. (Ryhmes)
The vocalist simply drag´em down.

Off-topic Erik... but why is your website down?

 

[Jind]

I think Empyrios does something like that as well....

Similar sounding - but I think I prefer Empyrios. Mostly because I pretty much love anything with Simone Mularoni playing on it - love his other more melodic band DGM.

Off-topic Erik... but why is your website down?

Because i'm so broke I can't pay the domain yet
Not like there's a lot of Erik Monsonis around to steal it, so I'm not very worried.
Also I'm on full schedule now for the rest of the year, so don't need more clients asking quotes yet
Anyways, as soon as I get paid from one of the 4 bands that have to pay me I'll get it again... It never ends this shit!

 

[Clockwork]

Sounds pretty good to me. Not my usual cup of tea but I can dig it.
