Ultimate Misery Signals Album
Compilation concept for one of my favorite bands ever. Compiles songs in a list while maintaining the sequencing from each albums respective tracklisting. |
1 | | Misery Signals Mirrors
Face Yourself
Instantly heavy song with a great build-up towards the end. Since Mis Sigs really only has two fully fleshed out opening tracks, this one beats out Nothing by a smidgen. |
2 | | Misery Signals Mirrors
The Failsafe
One of the best songs in Mis Sig's discog, this song combines a crushingly heavy breakdown in the middle with a beautiful atmospheric outro. The contrast in this track makes it addictive as fuck. |
3 | | Misery Signals Of Malice and the Magnum Heart
The Year Summer Ended in June
The most passionate song in their discog. The lyrical content and nostalgic elements in this song make it a metalcore classic. |
4 | | Misery Signals Mirrors
Migrate
Another gem off of Mirrors, this song might be their most underrated. Starting off real dreamy and quickly becomes deceptively heavy, this song packs quite the punch within a brief 2.5 minutes. |
5 | | Misery Signals Controller
Coma
An anchor right in the middle of Controller, this song brings some of Mis Sig's best melodies. The 2 minute instrumental outro gives me chills everytime. This song is akin to The Failsafe, but "Controllerfied." |
6 | | Misery Signals Absent Light
Lost Relics
Possibly the best song on Absent Light, this song riffs hard. Ryan Morgan's vocals halfway through the song are dope af, brings an awesome dimension to the song. |
7 | | Misery Signals Controller
Set in Motion
This song is the quintessential Misery Signals song, it has everything: Addicting shoegaze/atmospheric guitar parts, Karl's brutal vocals, background melodic vocals, and simple yet powerful lyrics (But I still hear the deafening drums of war, Onward every twisted spoke). Incredible. |
8 | | Misery Signals Controller
Ebb and Flow
A rare appearance featuring significant clean vocals, and they work perfectly within this song. Wish they incorporated some more cleans from time to time. |
9 | | Misery Signals Of Malice and the Magnum Heart
Five Years
Probably Mis Sig's best song. Powerful, nostalgic, and featuring one of the greatest outros in music history. That outro brings the chills everytime. They harness so much emotion into 6 minutes, it's truly impressive. |
10 | | Misery Signals Of Malice and the Magnum Heart
Difference of Vengeance and Wrongs
Combination of beautiful instrumentation, clean vox, and heavy vox make this an undeniable gem in Mis Sig's discog. Such a pretty yet emotionally heavy track. Also, the outro of the song features the into to A Victim, A Target, which is pretty cool in that it closes Of Malice perfectly. |
11 | | Misery Signals Mirrors
Mirrors
What a way to end an album. Starting at 3:10, the track goes through a slow, urgent build-up, which ends in an intense apex. The melodic guitar featured generously throughout the song is worth the price of admission alone. Their best closing track. |
