For Fans Of: I, The Breather, Texas In July, August Burns Red

The Novelist’s debut single was something that honestly impressed me the first time I heard it. A Debut single that basically shows off the bands full sound and talent, not to mention it started off heavy and gets you right into the mosh mode. There isn't anything really wrong with this song to be completely honest and up front. This song is very well one of the most impressive songs I've heard coming from a upcoming metal band, it definitely makes you want to keep listening to it over and over again, the vocals are just about right with genre and fit so well with the song. The song is 4 minutes long which really made me happy it’s definitely a song that could probably be a bit longer though. There’s also parts in the song like near the end where it just get heavier and the guitar play gets so much better than it was at the start of the song. The only thing I could possibly hate about this song is that vocalist doesn't really change up his style much in the song it’s just one style through the whole song with minor changes, which isn't that bad it actually kind of made the song more interesting to hear, but I still wish there were more diversity with the vocals in this song, maybe in the next song? This song though, in full blown honesty is going to leave an impression on the listener and roll some heads of the listeners. I can only hope the ep they’re releasing soon is much more impressive and shows more of their talents off, because I honestly want to hear more from this band. They’re releasing an ep very soon and which in my opinion won’t be enough, hopefully after this ep they go straight for an album.
Breakdown:
Screams: Basically, screams through the whole song the only thing I can only say I dislike about the screamer is that he doesn't really change his style much in this song, if they changed it a little bit he could have made this song into something different from the rest of the bands in the metal genre. But on the bright side the screamer is pretty good at his vocals and he definitely knows his vocals. Hopefully on the next song or on the ep he adds some diversity to his vocals to spice up the ep and spice up the sound of his vocals.
Instruments: This song start off heavy and keeps its heaviness, little changes in the sound but none to make it sound bad or anything, but to improve the flow of the sound and make it more interesting to listen to. The one thing that got my full attention is the drumming, the drumming is pretty impressive and if anything it’s pretty heavy and definitely helps the song get it’s heaviness, the guitars do their part as well, there’s some really great riffs in this song and one thing I seriously enjoyed about their instrument play was there was a guitar solo type of a thing in a few places of this song.

Rating: 5/5
