| Hoooooly shit there is some outrageously good material on this album. It's a shame about the breakdowns, which seem to exist solely as a means for them to maintain their deathcore cred. They're beyond that now, and they should embrace it. |

These guys have managed to develop a style that is actually distinct. They may not have been the
first to do a lot of these things but I don't know of any other band that has brought all these
elements together in the same way. Justin being one of the most weirdly wonderful vocalists out
there is the icing on the chaos cake. Album fucking wrecks face and I love it. |

| Spiritbox Rotoscope | 3.5 |

| The Black Dahlia Murder Verminous | 3.5 |
| As usual, there are a lot of tracks that while well crafted, are stale because they've played the style for song damn long. Also as usual, there are a few gems. Tracks 8 and 10 in particular are fantastic. |

| Invent Animate The Sun Sleeps, As If It Never Was | 4.5 |
| Caskets Lost Souls | 3.5 |
| Slaughter To Prevail Kostolom | 1.5 |
Some fun to be had here, but also a lot of shit. Alex is both the main draw for this band and
their biggest weakness with a wildly uneven vocal approach that ranges from fantastic to
cringeworthy. Despite being quite generic, the more straightforward deathcore tracks like
Demolisher are where this band feels the most natural, while the nu-metal influences tend to
derail pretty much every track they show up in.
I thought I would hate this way more than I do, but overall I still think these guys are very
mediocre, and their genre blend attempts are almost always disastrous.
EDIT: Disregard my previous statement, upon a few repeat listens it has become clear that I mostly
hate this. |

| August Burns Red Phantom Anthem | 2.5 |
| They haven't really changed their sound since Rescue and Restore, and it has become stale. Just more of the same, hard to get excited about. There's no doubt that it's well crafted music, but we've heard all this before, done in almost this exact way. They need a sound shift, badly. |
| August Burns Red Guardians | 2.5 |

| Shrine Of Malice Sheol | 3.0 |
| Too long for its own good, it all starts to blur together before the album is even half way over. That said, they're solid songwriters for such a young band and there is obviously a lot of potential here. Greg Gilbert, the vocalist, is only 19 years old and already shows more range and power than almost anyone in the genre. They're a band to watch, though they didn't quite nail the landing with this one. |

This is gonna fly under the radar, I wasn't even aware of it until it dropped and this is right up
my ally.
Very awesome album. Great vocal performance, the music is nasty when it wants to be, but also
beautiful during many sections. The production lets it down a little bit, but not enough to gripe
about it much. |
| ERRA Neon | 2.5 |
| Eh. JT is still giving a borderline monotone performance and the guitar work is still inferior their old lineup's material. It's not bad, but they used to be a lot better, and that's a hard thing to look past. |

| Make Them Suffer Worlds Apart | 3.5 |
| This is a band talented enough to take a very different approach on each album, and make it work. While I was initially worried about the loss of Louisa, Booka has a lovely voice, and it is put to good use. |
| Kingdom of Giants All the Hell You've Got to Spare | 2.0 |
| This album is really weak. It lacks everything that made Ground Culture a fun listen. No good riffs, no energy, way too many cleans, really bad choruses, and generally uninteresting music. They dropped the ball hard. Shame, because GC is a fun listen. |
| Shadow Of Intent Reclaimer | 4.5 |
| Head and shoulders above anything else in Deathcore. No two songs sound the same, all of the rinstrumentals are superbly written... And then there are the vocals. Ben Duerr is a master of rhis craft, the performance he gives on this album is really something. His range, power, effort to rACTUALLY ENUNCIATE, and occasionally absurd speed, provide the listener with some of the wildest rvocals that one could ask for.rThis is what Deathcore bands should strive to be. |

| This is a letdown. I was bored before it ended, the songs run together. There is nothing going on the the guitar department. The full focus is on the vocals, and while they have always been the strong-point of this band, they aren't strong enough to carry an entire album's worth of dull samey sounding material.rTheir debut remains their strongest release. |
| Insomnium Above the Weeping World | 4.5 |
| Insomnium Winter's Gate | 4.5 |
| Breakdown of Sanity Coexistence | 3.5 |
Restless had me a bit worried, but once again these guys have put out an album displaying how much
fun can be had with a somewhat standard metalcore sound. BoS sounds like BoS and that's fine with
me, they have their place in the genre and they don't need to change it as long as they keep
putting out quality bangers like this. |
| The Room Colored Charlatan The Veil That Conceals | 4.0 |
| Fallujah Dreamless | 3.5 |
| Fantastic as expected, I do have one gripe though. The vocalist only uses his highs on ONE part of one song, the entire rest of the album contains nothing but his growl and the guest spots. That section of The Void Alone is the most striking part of the entire album to me. Dude needs to use that range of his more often. |

| Make Them Suffer Old Souls | 4.5 |
| Awesome album from a talented band that really excels at bringing emotion to heavy music. This has ra lot more variety than Neverbloom but keeps the best of what makes the band who they are. The rsymphonic elements are as strong as ever, and Sean Harmanis, while mostly putting his piercing rshrieks aside in favor of new styles, once again proves that he is one of the most talented rvocalists around. |

Absolute trash. Extremely over the top vocal production, making any actual talent the new guy may
have hard to hear, or care about. They still can't write riffs for shit, I honestly couldn't get
through the whole thing. Boring as can be, I just skimmed each song. Band has been around for
years and they haven't progressed at all. These guys simply don't have any songwriting skills. I
hear they're breaking up after their next tour. That would be for the best. |
| Bloodshot Dawn Demons | 4.0 |
| Beheading of a King Deathrone | 2.5 |
| I can't say I didn't see it coming, album is mediocre. New vocalist is solid but has nothing on the previous one, and the instrumentals have become less interesting. Feels like just another deathcore album with a few cool moments. |
| Deadlock The Re-Arrival | 2.5 |
| Breakdowns At Tiffany's Constants | 3.5 |
| Wovenwar Wovenwar | 4.0 |
| Darkest Hour Darkest Hour | 2.5 |
| Well... Some of it is fantastic, and some of it is underwhelming to say the least. It's going to take me a lot of listens to really decide how I feel about this album, but one this is clear: This is a VERY different Darkest Hour than the one we've all come to know. |
| Widek Outside the Universe | 3.5 |
| Wolves at the Gate VxV | 3.5 |
| Outstanding vocal performances and solid instrumentals to accompany them make for another great album from these guys. It's a shame they ONLY write songs about god, some more diverse lyrics would be nice, but still, this kicks ass. |
| The Word Alive Real. | 3.0 |
Not bad, they still haven't lived up to their potential but this is way better than Life
Cycles and there's some pretty cool tracks here. There's also some pretty shitty ones. |

| Destiny Potato Lun | 4.0 |
| The Seer Prologue | 4.0 |
| Darkest Hour Deliver Us | 5.0 |
| The Overseer Rest and Let Go | 3.0 |
| Very mixed feeling about this album. I really enjoyed this band's debut. This isn't nearly as heavy, and the heavy bits are a let down. I like atmosphere and it works well here at times, but I found a couple tracks downright boring. Clean vocals are very easy on the ears, and thankfully take the spotlight. If the vocalist was still screaming and growling like he did on the debut I would want more, but he sounds like a copy of Mike Hranica here, which is not good at allllllll. |
| Audrey Fall Mitau | 4.5 |
| Periphery Clear | 2.0 |
Nothing special or stand out here. Way too many lame vocal effects, despite all the songs
being written by different people a lot of them still sound far too familiar, and the ones
that sound different than what the band usually puts out just aren't very good.
Disappointing release. |
| Rise Against The Sufferer and the Witness | 4.0 |
| After the Burial Wolves Within | 3.5 |
| Disconnect is probably the best song they've written, the rest of the album is is pretty hit or miss. |
| Shreddy Krueger The Grieving | 4.0 |
| A Call To Sincerity Foundations | 3.5 |
| Talented group. The music is very enjoyable for the most part, nice and melodic, some pretty beautiful material here. The vocals are... eh. They sound strong at first but there's not enough variation and they get stale long before the album ends. It's a shame the vocalist they picked up recently is even worse. |
| ERRA Augment | 4.5 |
| It's Impulse part 2. In a way this is very disappointing, they don't experiment with their sound or add a single new thing to it. That being said, once you come to terms with that and just listen to this for what it is, it's great stuff. Jesse sounds amazing on this album and there's some really beautiful guitar work, these guys are talented so more of the same will do the trick... For now. |
| Protest the Hero Volition | 3.5 |
| Not as good as Fortress, but I honestly don't ever expect them to top that. Definitely my rsecond favorite Protest album, song structures are far more interesting than on Scurrilous rand (almost) all of the guest vocals are great. The end of Underbite is unfortunate to say rthe least, but oh well. Album has some truly awesome moments, Rody kills it and Adler ractually has some pretty sweet sections, the fact that he clicked with their sound as well ras he did is impressive. |
| Breakdown of Sanity Perception | 4.0 |
| I have such a soft spot for this band. Generic as fuck but equally fun. This album is a rpretty big step up from Mirrors, the songwriting is much better, more interesting guitar rleads, and their energetic brand of chugging is still holding up well enough. rOddly enough my gripe is with the vocals. I know for a fact that this guy is one of the more rtalented screamers in the genre, and yet his performance here is very limited in range. I've rheard him hit awesome highs and crushing lows but he seems pretty content with his mid range rhere. They sound great, but the highs are nearly untouched, and the lows could definitely be rused more as well. Some sections very obviously suffer simply because a higher or lower rrange would have made a much larger impact. rAll in all it's a very fun album. |
| The Devil Wears Prada 8:18 | 4.0 |
Gonna suck.
Edit: Turns out it's much better than the singles would lead one to believe. It's not really
anything special but it's pretty good for this band, some of their best work. Mike's vocals
are both at their worst and best here, depending on the song, and Jeremy has never sounded
better. It's far from perfect but it ends up being pretty fun. |
| Insomnium One for Sorrow | 3.5 |
| Born of Osiris Tomorrow We Die Alive | 2.0 |
| So much poor execution on this album. It's like they said "hey let's take everything that we made work on The Discovery and turn it to shit." |

| Just stumbled on to this band on Facebook. Very talented bunch of guys, and for a debut album this is fantastic. Shame that they've gone essentially unnoticed thus far. |
| Oh, Sleeper The Titan | 3.0 |
Not nearly as good as CoF. There's something missing, I don't even really know what it is,
but none of the songs had the impact that songs on CoF had. The best song on the album is
Shane's nearly solo song, Heavy Hands. Shane is fucking awesome but his ballad shouldn't be
the album highlight.
If you're expecting songs on par with Endseekers or Hush Yael you will be let down. |
| August Burns Red Rescue & Restore | 4.5 |
| Scale the Summit The Migration | 3.0 |
I can't really get into it. It's fun for a spin or two but it lacks the emotional impact
that The Collective had, which is what elevated it from something good to something really
special. Technically this is great but it failed to hit me in the feels. |

| Beheading of a King Quasar: Preserving Legacy | 4.0 |
| Feed Her to the Sharks Savage Seas | 1.5 |
| This is really bad. They showed potential on their first release but this is just sad. The lyrics are some of the worst I've ever come across. The guy growls like a beast while crying like a little bitch, his writing is very limited. The music is generic as can be, there's nothing fun about it. |
| Killswitch Engage Disarm the Descent | 3.5 |
| Hope For The Dying Aletheia | 2.5 |
The problem with this band is that they essentially noodle on their instruments for the
entire lengths of their albums. This is quite well written in some spots and the guitar work
is awesome, but by the time the end comes you're just sick of it. It loses any impact it
initially had and becomes tiresome.
Also the vocals don't fit the music and the cleans are shit. |
| Northlane Singularity | 4.5 |
| It leaked, not 320 KBPS so I'm tempted to wait to hear it, but it's out there.rEdit: Gone through three times now. I like it more than Discoveries.

If the rest of the songs on this album are as bad as the 2 already released then the album
deserves a 1 for pure wasted talent if nothing else. To go from TFoI to this crap is just
disgusting.
Edit: It's as bad as we all knew it would be. |
| Disarmonia Mundi The Isolation Game | 3.5 |
| The Faceless Autotheism | 2.5 |
| Yeah it's super fast and technical and they added prog elements but... Who gives a shit?

I wouldn't bother listening to this more than once. |

A step up from the previous album. The vocals are a little more varied but could still use a little work in my opinion. The guitar work is enjoyable just like on the previous album, they have a bit of a djent sound this time. It's a good album, still just a little too generic to really fall in love with, but these guys are talented and if they keep improving I'm sure they'll put out a really outstanding record in the future.
Oh and "Lunar" is fantastic. It's heavy, beautiful, and eerie all at the same time. |

Gotta love leaks. This is better than AtD, no contest at all. Is it better than TPoE? Most of you probably won't think so, but it's a damn good album and any metalhead should give it a few spins.
Edit: They are currently selling this at Mayhem Fest, so a lot of people own the album, so any reviews that were taken down should be put back up since the album has TECHNICALLY been released.
2nd edit: Not allowing reviews for this album? Wtf Sputnik D: |
