I took the hit, my body bloody and bruised, crashing to the ground under the weight of this diverse hardcore/thrash/death metal act’s walloping aggression.
They emanate the flow of Quicksand, Kiss It Goodbye, and the manic flare of Today Is The Day, but under underneath it all is rage, melody, and uncertainty.
From the ashes of 7 Angels 7 Plagues. Their six-song debut EP (produced by Devin Townsend) is a voluptuous and harmonious drive of thrashing intensity.
Upstate New York act It Dies Today is a volatile concoction of Meshuggah-inspired riffs, metallic angst, and hardcore might: A truly powerful dose of momentum.
One of the better bands to emerge from the hardcore scene in Boston. Singer Colin Schleifer left, Paul Stoddard joined, and the band signed to Century Media.
Easily the band’s most promising and punishing work to date, and no doubt puts them at the forefront of the genre, up there with Unearth and Lamb of God.
