Seeing Eighteen Visions Tonight

Eighteen Visions are doing a 20th anniversary tour for Vanity, I snagged tickets for the Philly show tonight, and I am hype! In honor, here are some of Eighteen Visions thoughts and hot takes.
1Eighteen Visions
Lifeless


18V don't get enough credit for essentially being a proto-deathcore band.
2Eighteen Visions
Yesterday Is Time Killed


They were a breeding ground for other great bands -- Bleeding Through and Throwdown were both formed from members of 18V.
3Eighteen Visions
No Time For Love


They helped popularize skronky, off-kilter metalcore, especially on the west coast.
4Eighteen Visions
Inferno


Up until I interviewed James a couple years ago, I had no idea they were a straightedge band.
5Eighteen Visions
Until the Ink Runs Out


Where do you think the movie sample breakdown came from?
6Eighteen Visions
Vanity


Clearly the band had a huge impact on the visual aesthetic of metalcore for a very long time.
7Eighteen Visions
Eighteen Visions


They were a band that was consistently ahead of the curve, something I think stifled their success.
8Eighteen Visions
The Best Of


I have a James Hart BFF counter and it's up to something like 9 or 10
