Old Souls (Make Them Suffer Album)
''Old Souls'' is the second studio album by Australian metalcore band Make Them Suffer. The album was released on 28 May 2015 through Roadrunner Records and was produced by Roland Lim. Critical reception The album received positive reviews from critics. ''KillYourStereo'' gave the album a positive review and stated: "Make Them Suffer have outdone themselves with ''Old Souls''. The poetic lyrics and story-telling nature of the songs; the driving blast beats that actually drive the songs further; the symphonic and orchestral elements all result in a far more interesting soundscape than just mere chugs, low growls and breakdowns. ''Old Souls'' runs at a break neck pace. It is emotionally intense as they come, and its mix and production is top-notch (on ya Roland Lim). Equally, it's also far more layered and textured than most other metal albums out at the moment. There is so much to find and love within the 40 or so minutes that this album dwells within its running time. You would h ...

Deathcore
Deathcore is an extreme metal subgenre that combines death metal with metalcore. The genre consists of death metal guitar riffs, blast beats, and metalcore breakdowns. While there are some precursors to the concept of death metal fused with metalcore/hardcore elements seen in the 1990s, deathcore itself emerged in the early 2000s and gained prominence beginning in the mid-2000s within the southwestern United States, especially Arizona and inland southern California (mostly the Coachella Valley), which are home to many notable bands and various festivals. Some of the genre's earliest examples include Antagony, Despised Icon, and the Red Chord. Deathcore's expansion in the mid-2000s saw bands like All Shall Perish, Through the Eyes of the Dead, Bring Me the Horizon, Suicide Silence, Carnifex, Job for a Cowboy, Chelsea Grin and Whitechapel taking off. In the 2010s, deathcore bands began experimenting with an eclectic selection of other genres. The genre is noted for its criticism ...

Critical reception The album received positive reviews from critics. ''KillYourStereo'' gave the album a positive review and stated: "Roadrunner Records obviously considered Make Them Suffer worthy of promotion and ''Neverbloom'' for what it's worth seemingly justifies this support. Maybe for you '' Game of Throne'' lovers, this can be your unofficial soundtrack. Make Them Suffer's name has slowly yet gradually made its way into the local metal vocabulary over the last 12 to 18 months. ''Neverbloom'' thankfully highlights that this regard is for adequate reasons." ''Loud'' scored the album 85 out of 100 and said: "Overall, ''Neverbloom'' is a venomous and unrelenting offering of deathcore mixed with the band's various influences.

Metalcore
Metalcore (also known as metallic hardcore) is a fusion music genre that combines elements of extreme metal and hardcore punk. As with other styles blending metal and hardcore, such as crust punk and grindcore, metalcore is noted for its use of breakdowns, slow, intense passages conducive to moshing. Other defining instrumental qualities include heavy riffs and stop-start rhythm guitar playing, occasional blast beats, and double bass drumming. Vocalists in the genre typically use thrash or scream vocals. Some later metalcore bands combine this with clean singing, often during the chorus. Death growls and gang vocals are common. 1990s metalcore bands were inspired by hardcore while later metalcore bands were inspired by melodic death metal bands like At the Gates and In Flames. The roots of metalcore are in the 1980s when bands would combine hardcore punk with heavy metal. This included New York hardcore bands like Agnostic Front, Cro-Mags, and Killing Time, British hardcore p ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
