In a genre riddled with complete shit, finding a gem is really hard, but they are out there. Maybe it's because this is metal from Italy since they have some of the best bands coming out right now. Is that all we needed non-American Deathcore? I feel as though this is true. Blah blah blah you don't want to see a boring bio so I'm skipping to the music.

Yeah I love these guys I just don't bother recommending it to people because usually when you do you get a shitstorm XD
Started playing first song. Stopped at 0:06. Started playing second song. Stopped at 0:23. Just my personal tastes, but I can't stand the vocals. And then the drumming. Oh God. What gives these people the idea that playing parts that [b]should be doublebass only[/b] on the snare drum sounds good? TINTINTINTINTINTINTINTINTINTINTINTINTINTINTINTINTINTIN Oh my God I hate it when bands do that so much. Because of these things (the drums make it literally unbearable for me to listen to. It's not a deathcore thing, lots of death metal bands do it, too) I can't judge if its any good or not. I'll take your word for it.
How about you actually listen to the songs and then judge them? How are you going to build an opinion with a 32 seconds sample? They aren't just double bass blast beat city.
Wow, I personally love the blast beat snare drum spam for some reason. :v: Anyways, I find these guys pretty good, but I don't really listen to much deathcore in the first place.

How many bands do you know that change their drum sound midsong? I don't know many.
Half the time the songs just sound like a clusterfuck of noise, but it actually sounds fairly complex underneath. I'm not sure if there is any actual song structure, but I like it nonetheless. Still need to get used to the vocals though.

good deathcore is [I]still[/I] an oxymoron at least these guys sound like they know how to play, though

my fav bande i liked the double bass part and where the lead singer screamed.

Here's how drums [b]SHOULD SOUND[/b] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-pfppHjJwI[/media] See how there's no snare-drum rape.
