Pretty good band, hopefully being on Metal Blade will get them some better production on their music now.
Cool and all, but c'mon Metal Blade…
Holy fuckin shit that was absolutely horrid! I feel like stabbing my ears! Those guys should not be allowed to make music. I liked to 15 seconds of it and it was so awful, that I couldn't go on any further. Wow…it's a shame that this piece of shit pathetic excuse for a band will probably get popular like Faggots Lay Dying, and Avenged Shitfold.
Thanks for your useless insight.
I'm a music god. I know what sounds good. My critisizm was constructive. It was needed. Maybe the band will read it and learn from their horrible horrible mistake of becoming a shitcore band.
