Psycho-Frame // Remote God Seeker
Psycho-Frame is one of my favorite new bands from 2023. They’re bringing back the og deathcore sound, and with the recent influx of symphonic deathcore bands, this revival couldn’t have come at a better time. They released two separate EPs in 2023, placed 7th in my album of the year list, and are absolutely one of the coolest deathcore bands right now.
I’ve been pushing every “deathcore throwback” band that I can because this is what it’s all about. No gimmicks, just bludgeoning heaviness. On that same note, it’s refreshing to hear a range of heavy vocals without feeling like the vocalist is competing in the deathcore olympics.
For those who don’t know, Psycho-Frame was formed by the two vocalists and bassist of Vatican (RIP) and the guitarists of Moodring. It’s a bummer that Vatican broke up, but their sacrifice has created something even greater.
Psycho-Frame joins bands like Tactosa and Tracheotomy in the quest to return to deathcore’s roots. I’m probably biased because this is the style I grew up with, but deathcore hasn’t hit like this in a while.
