"My partner is into old school punk, and I ask him what he likes about it vs. post hardcore, screamo, etc. One of them is that the songs are shorter, which allows for more variety... and this is a point I can totally see; thankfully for him, Meißel took a word out of that book and brings to you some powerfully written material back-to-back with a great mashup of screamo and post hardcore, ever-changing in intensity; I love it. Thanks to David from the band, go and give them some love for their masterful work!"

File Updates - Fordirelifesake

After listening to these guys for years... I came to the realization that their album I never touched, "A Daydream Disaster (2005)" was actually just a compilation of various tracks from their S/T and splits... and for that reason, I decided to turn the original "Foredirelifesake (2001)" post into that. I'll still keep the Deluge split up though separately.

If you haven't heard these guys before you need to, they really are incredible. I'm going to upload their (1999?) demo soon so be on the lookout for that.

"I can't even call what genre it is. It's a sick mix of metalcore, deathcore, nu metal, post-hardcore (sometimes) and groove metal. Heavy af, despite it's not any -death like stuff, but the vibe, album cover art and lyrics make you feel like it's kickass deathcore-like stuff. Actually lyrics aren't so original (sometimes even stupid imo), but it works damn good in such mix of pain and aggression. In their next album, 'Книга Мёртвых' (Book of Dead) they improved their songwriting so much, but for me 'Неизбежность' is still their best work through all the years."

"First overlooked at the mere sight of it on a certain YT music spam channel... I didn't bother giving it a listen (rookie mistake, I should know better). Months later I rediscovered it whilst looking for some cassettes to pick up for my bf's car's radio. Finally, I sat down and gave it the time that it deserved before. Darkwave and hardcore are a match made in heaven, and I really wish I saw it more, with bands like The Axe That Chopped The Cherry Tree and Blow Up being ones that come to mind. The innate characteristics of the darkwave genre carry across it unrivaled atmosphere for the hardcore components to reside in. As a result, you get a uniquely personal listening experience that helps you appreciate all other aspects of fantastic vocalization, excellent guitarwork, heavy bass, and cadenced drums (think of it as a concert in a chamber, that's the best way I can visualize it). This has been one of the coolest albums I've heard in the past year, and I'm so looking forward to spending more time with it."
