New Design the Skyline song

2016-01-12 by DatsNotDaMetulz | 43 Comments
The latest incarnation of Corpus Christi, TX deathcore band Design the Skyline, now consisting solely of vocalist Eric Azure and guitarist Henry Maneuver in its ever changing cast of musicians, has released a new song ahead of the release of the much delayed "Rebirth", expected in early 2016. The track, "Lotus", shows a change in vocal style from Azure and a lower tuning to the guitars, exploring 'djent' territory.
Stream the song below:

Band was always trash but I thought they broke-up?

Everyone but the original vocalist either jumped ship or were thrown off it, can't remember which. And then he hired new people and absolutely nothing changed, quality-wise.

I wanted this to be good but it's still just so bad. I always want a band to succeed but DtS can't seem to learn from their failures.

It's a step up but the production sucks. The low guitar riffs are too hollow due to the lack of any bass and it just turns into a non-tonal fuzz which feels really out of the mix. With a bit of multitracking and remixing to include the bass, they could fix it up a bit but I think it would benefit more from a re-recording with a completely different guitar tone and perhaps an octave or two higher because ridiculously low guitar tunings are a bit too 2010.

Should have been shorter and could have used more variation in tempo, but it's not bad.

Eric has definitely gotten better as a vocalist, but that's about all that's changed in terms of actual quality of the music. Production has definitely declined though.

"Did Jarrod Alonge write this?"

Wouldn't that be hilarious if he did?

First single had a heavy muse vibe to it, this single is your average djent song.

I take credit for having them reform. Eric wanted to originally cease Design The Skyline but I convinced him to keep the project going. Really good stuff.

The saddest thing about this band is that they have a cool name that would be better suited elsewhere.

Okay, so I commented before listening to it. But I stand by my earlier statement. Also:
Did Jarrod Alonge write this? [2]
Sounds a lot like his djent parody...
