Sleepless In December - Living In Sequence

Posted by Unknown On Sunday, February 24, 2013














Genre: Experimental
For Fans Of: Design The Skyline, The Bunny The Bear, ExtraLargeKids!

Ethan White (EX design the skyline bassist) and Matt Ryan (Still in design the skyline... I think?).

Ethan's cleans were always something worth listening too in design the skyline, for whatever reason he got kicked out is and always will be beyond me, Matt is doing scream vocals in Sleepless In December. His screams kind of give that design the skyline feeling. I have to admit i really did enjoy this song because of the screams sound different then you'd usually hear. Matt and Ethan are definitely great pair of vocalist that has a sound that makes originality come alive in their music. This band has a lot of talent in just one I wonder what a whole EP could show. The clean vocals mixed with the screams stand out more than anything in the band honestly.  The flow of everything is another thing that sticks out but not more than the vocals, but the vocals and instruments stay close to each other. The drumming is spot on though besides the vocals I have to say the drummer caught my attention, certain parts with the drumming really didn't match the song but sounded really good. The guitars riffs are okay not to impressive but make a great flow with the vocals. The electronic parts are pretty sweet though something that stuck out too mainly because they’re at the end more than the start of the song.
Breakdown:
Cleans: Ethan’s clean vocals are just amazing, his style is something different and great, talented in-deed.
Screams: Matt’s scream surprised me in all honesty I didn't expect his screams to sound so good. His vocals impressed me, truly impressive vocal style and new and worth every second you’ll be listening to them.
Instruments: Kind of sound like every other metalcore band, but the flow they have is something great and worth the listen.

Rating: 3/5
