Far from innovative, but enjoyable and well-put together metal album

See, this is usually the part where I would drop a VtN without warning, but then I eventually come to the revelation that the joke's old as Sin. In any case, Central European metalcore project Recode the Subliminal's full-length debut record is a well-written beginning, albeit one that displays a band who should make room for improvement later down the road. Nothing here stands out as offensively bad, though there isn't much showcased that can be called impressive either. At the moment Recode's MVP is none other than American frontman Ryan Strain, who some may recognize for his YT channel where he primarily uploads vocal covers of songs originally performed by acts like Sybreed, Kamelot, In Flames, to name a couple. The otherwise decent instrumentation is often outshined just by how entertaining Strain's performance can be. In conclusion, The Cost of Every Man is totally fine for the style of music these dudes play, and there's promise which hopefully gets capitalized on in the future. Angel recommends: "The Harvest," "Ordinary Heroes," "Leviathan," and "Hope Is Lost".

Solid metalcore album. I'm not much of a Metalcore fan but this band has some cool rhythmic ideas and doesn't fall into the boring chug fest/terrible singing category that a lot of modern melodic Metalcore does. Good production too, and plenty of ideas throughout. Just a well-handled album all round, if a tad underwhelming.
