Foreign Hands // What’s Left Unsaid

If you’ve been following along the modern hardcore narrative, you may have noticed Foreign Hands releasing countless singles throughout the last seven years, alongside a rather convincing EP a few years back that came close to elevating the band’s trajectory. But nothing in the band’s catalogue compares to what’s been Read more…

Enterprise Earth // Death: An Anthology

I want to take a moment to revisit Enterprise Earth’s album from earlier this year. At the time, many hailed it as an album of the year contender. My personal tastes have led me in slightly different directions, but it is certainly worthy of a top 20 spot. If nothing Read more…

In Hearts Wake // Incarnation

This is by far the best album from In Hearts Wake since their debut in 2012. Interestingly, ‘Incarnation’ returns to the tarot card theme from ‘Divination.’ Both albums feature 11 songs connected to a different Major Arcana Tarot card, and since there are 22 cards, In Hearts Wake have finally Read more…

Wage War // Stigma

What a disappointment. It seemed like Wage War was getting back on track when they released ‘Manic,’ but this is awful. Might be even worse than ‘Pressure.’ I just moved back to California so I was driving with my dad and he was listening to Octane on Sirius XM. Wage Read more…

Darko // Starfire

What a wild effort from Darko. 71 minutes, 19 songs, and 6 features. Their fifth album in five years. Originally created as a side project by Tom Barber and Josh Miller, Darko has become one of the most exciting deathcore bands of the last few years. These two are a Read more…

Bring Me The Horizon // Post Human: Nex Gen

Bring Me The Horizon is so back. There’s a lot to talk about, and I think this is the longest review I’ve ever written, so let’s get into it. For me, this is the biggest comeback of all time. BMTH was one of my favorite bands from 2006-2013, but I Read more…

Like Moths To Flames // The Cycles Of Trying To Cope

Like Moths To Flames is on fire. It’s rare for a metalcore band that’s been around for almost 15 years to hit their stride so late in the game, but LMTF’s last couple releases have been unbelievably good. Often, metalcore bands’ efforts to expand their style result in disaster. But Read more…

Knocked Loose // You Won’t Go Before You’re Supposed To

Knocked Loose is on top of the world. Unbelievably, as their popularity continues to reach new heights, they get heavier. They defy conventional norms, getting more extreme over time, and that willingness to double down in the name of heavy music simultaneously earns the loyalty of long-time listeners and wins Read more…

Ancst // Culture of Brutality

I hadn’t heard of this band before, but they remind me a lot of early Heaven Shall Burn. This style of metalcore is almost unrecognizable compared to how the genre has evolved over the last 25 years. This will probably be a tough listen for anybody whose library doesn’t go Read more…

Renesans // Born From The End

Here’s another new band that impressed me. They’re fronted by David Benites, a vocal coach, and it’s immediately apparent that he knows what he’s doing. He has great range and the rest of the band provides better than average instrumentation. The funny thing is that David sounds extremely similar to Read more…
