music that matters
Rock music has a unique way of communicating pain. Its often visceral and raw sound is the perfect complement to the weight hurt often carries. When all within us wants to shriek and scream, metal expresses for us what’s going on internally.
Metalcore group Amongst the Giants has graced the scene with a new jam: "Black Box." There is a desperation felt through the musicality of this song that never relents, perfectly fitting with the theme of internal anguish. Raw, yet refined; crunchy, but smooth; aggression meets torment.
Filled with equal parts melody and hardcore drive, Pain Split is an album that is easy to listen to, but it still packs a punch that won't soon be forgotten.
The Fire Itself is such pure metalcore, done so breathtakingly immaculately... the guitars are as intricate as Phinehas has ever written, and the breakdowns (and there are plenty) are some of their most complex.
Metalcore mainstay Memphis May Fire has dropped a new single and music video, titled "Bleed Me Dry." The track is the third from the Rise Records band in 2021, following "Blood and Water" and "Death Inside."
Earth Groans has released their new single "Drink," the first track from their upcoming The Body EP, which is due out on September 3.
Fremont, OH metalcore act Convictions have released their highly anticipated album I Won't Survive—and the hype was well justified.
As many know by now, The Devil Wears Prada is releasing a follow-up to their 2010 EP Zombie, aptly titled ZII. The lead single off the EP, "Termination," sounds like the band has gone back to the distinct heavy nature of the original Zombie EP while also maintaining a lot of their current, more atmospheric sound.
Swedish metalcore band Imminence has released their latest single and video called "Temptation."
Faith-based metalcore band Theocracy broke from Christmas tradition in 2020 by not releasing a holiday themed tune for the first time since 2004. Instead, the Georgia rockers gave their fans another gift in the form of an announcement about next year.
