[@TimmyTurner421]

Amen to that!

[@christmasdenier]

I just saw them live a few days ago man. They still act like a local band trying to make it big. I feel this makes them genuine. Every album they release is consistently amazing from start to finish. They get something out od what they do and they love writing solid music.

Agree. Also with the guest vocals. I mean it's good if bands support each other but there are so many songs with guest vocals that it gets kinda annoying.

Man this Song is the definition of deathcore, it is all solid. Brutal, honest shouts. Insane growls, gutturals and screams. Super tight drums, nasty bass, riffs are on point, perfect balance of rhythms and slams/breakdowns. lyrics and whole message of the song is in perfect harmony with the structure of the song and the production quality.
