It seems like a lifetime ago that I sat down to listen to Suicide Silence, and it happened to be at the behest of this esteemed closet of pain and boils that manifests itself as Ave Noctum, to sit in… Continue Reading →
Fit For An Autopsy, are one of those bands that, for me, have been lumped in with what seems like a plethora of cookie cutter bands, bubbling away in the stew that is the Deathcore scene. All syncopated double bass… Continue Reading →
Deathcore is perhaps the most up and down genre for me. I have loved it, I used to be a massive Whitechapel fan (I still like them, just not as much). I also love bands like Annotations Of An Autopsy,… Continue Reading →
