A single from a deadly wish the last gathering, i did a review on their ep which was a great listen and this song is another great listen. I have to say this song shows more of the clean vocals then the ep did, this has a mixture of vocals which is always good for bands in metalcore. This song is probably one of my favorite from the band for the fact there's a mixture of vocals and the flow of the song sounds brilliant. The lyrics on this song are somewhat catchy, mainly the clean parts though. The guitar riffs are pretty cool as-well for an un-signed band this band definitely shows a lot of their talents in five minutes. I've had this song on repeat for a while it’s one of those songs you’ll listen to over and over again it’s pretty catchy, well really catchy. Another thing I have to point out, the clean vocalist style is pretty cool I just don’t like the type of recording that they used otherwise it’d sound better. But otherwise the clean vocals are definitely one thing to closely listen too in this song and this band. The vocals in general stick out in all honesty, cannot wait to see more from this band.
Breakdown:
Cleans: The clean vocals
are more in this song than ep showed.
Screams: The screamer is
back and he kept his style, not much of a huge change from the ep but some
changes were made.
Instruments: Pretty
heavy with a little bit of softness in a few parts.

A Deadly wish's first EP. I'll be honest i like the ep
but the recording sound a little low the vocals/instruments could have been a
little bit louder on this, but oh well.
"Charlene"
This song starts
off with some guitar and some drums followed by the screamer. Instead
of an intro song that's 45 seconds long or a minute this cuts the cake for an
intro to this ep. It shows the sound they're giving off and trying to make,
possibly one of my favorite songs on this EP. One thing i noticed is
the drumming is loud and can be heard clearly.
Breakdown:
Screams: The
screams are mostly lows with some highs mixed with them, sounds pretty nice in
all honesty the vocalist’s style is one of a kind for sure.
Instruments:
Pretty heavy, definitely a great way to start off the ep and show
people what things are going to sound like. The guitar riffs are worth
listening to on this song as-well as the drumming and everything
else instrument wise.
"Until The End"
Second song on
this great EP listening to this ep makes me wonder how such great bands never
get picked up or noticed. This song is another favorite to say the least, the
intro caught my attention along with the screamer and "breakdown".
This song also happens to be the longest song on the ep.
Breakdown:
Screams: Screams
only in this song loud and proud! The lyrics go along with the screams which is
pretty new to hear, great to say the least.
Instruments: This
song has some good guitar riffs and the drumming is a bit heavier than the
first song. This song is heavier than the first song in a lot of way in all
honesty.
"Oh
Sweety"
One thing about
this song is that it introduces the clean vocals. This song is a bit softer
than the other two songs this song is sort of like a turning point of the song.
Breakdown:
Cleans: This is the first song
to have clean vocals on this ep the clean vocals definitely fit
pretty well with this band’s sound.
Screams: The
screams kind of mix in with the clean vocals, but there are still more screams
than cleans on this song.
Instruments: A little
bit softer than the other two songs but there are some heavy parts.
"She Walks At
Sunrise"
Last song on the
EP definitely a great way to end it also, this song is more like the
first and second song. No clean vocals, sadly! Still a great song none the less
Breakdown:
Screams: Once
again a song with no clean vocals, just screams the style of the screams can be
somewhat mistaken for cleans though. I like the screamers style a lot though.
Instruments:
Pretty heavy like the first and second song, such a great flow with
the instruments.

With the newest single from Escape The Fate. I will be totally honest and say I'm highly impressed. I was iffy to buy the song at first, but then I was like, I have idolized these guys for a long time. Escape The Fate helped me through some hard times in my life so I might as well support them and buy this single. The artwork is neat.
The song started off with Craig's vocals. I've always been a fan of his vocals since Blessthefall and his other projects. I've also noticed that Craig had been in and out of a few bands and done a few guest vocals but what intrigued me is how his vocals can sound completely different in one song and amaze me with the next. With almost everything he's done in his career as a musician, I can definitely say his vocal style is diverse compared to many vocalists in other bands. In this song though his vocals have changed and improved a lot from older releases, his screams are changed up a bit in the song and his clean vocals have changed a good bit also. I'd have to say this song was a good single to pick for the new album it shows how they changed from their older releases and how they've matured in places that they needed to. Some things that stuck out to me are the drumming, vocals, and lyrics. Robert has always been a great drummer, but with this song he kind of made it best for Escape The Fate’s drumming, you can hear it clearly along with the other instruments in this song. The lyrics are in-deed catchy and fit the flow of the song very well. The meaning behind the lyrics; sound personal and actually have meaning behind them. Escape The Fate will remain one of my favorite bands. I am seriously excited for this album to be released.
The Breakdown:
Cleans: Craig's clean vocals are another thing that ends up changing with his newly found vocal style his cleans always go with the flow of everything nothing sounds wrong or incorrect when it comes to him, he just makes it work anyway he possibly can.
Screams: The song starts off with Craig's screams, if you were a fan of his older screams he only got better. His new style is something worth checking out. I like listening to stuff Craig is featured in because of the fact he can change his style to fit the band’s sound and make it fit with the flow.
Instruments: Everything is pretty clear you can hear the bass / guitar / drums. Robert is by far one of my favorite drummers I really enjoy this song for his drumming if you listen close enough you can hear everything. But in the end everything flows together and fits so nicely.

The first review i did for this band was the first thing they ever released this is the album/ep they released. This album has really short songs, it kind of makes me wonder why such short songs, they'd be so good if they were a bit longer. I do have to admit once again the vocals stand out, this band does a good job at being different in the hardcore scene everything has that flow to them, nothing leaves the flow either it continues through the whole song also. A few songs that stick out, self (en) titled, Raised By Wolves, Still life. The first song sticks out because the intro track of him screaming/yelling it was an odd way to start an album for sure but it did make me want to listen to it more. Still life stood out too, mainly because the guitar intro sounded awkward for this genre it sounded trippy kind of and the drums were soft but of course this leads on to it getting heavier and getting back into the hardcore genre. The vocalist on those three songs went crazy honestly. Still life is also the longest song on the album and softest song on it as-well, the band did such a great job on this album I can’t wait for another release from the band.
Breakdown:
Vocals: The vocalist had more parts and did a great job on every song on this album, he’s pretty talented at doing what he’s doing I must say, I wouldn't mind him doing a longer song and more screams/yelling in a song, but he is for sure talented and pretty great at keep his vocal style.
Instruments: Once again, like the single the instruments have that flow to them and never mess up or get off that flow.

To be completely honest, i was never a huge fan of the hardcore music scene. I don't really know why now, i love this song. The vocal style of this guy is crazy, i can seriously say i like it and how the instruments are pretty random and not the same through the song is pretty sweet. I guess you could say this made me a fan of hardcore (actual hardcore music). A few things I’d like to point out though. The vocal style of their vocalist is pretty well sweet, the way he can make his vocals go high and all crazy like takes some true talent and skill, even doing this live will take some talent and some skill without ruining your vocal cords that is. The music structuring (unless this is all hardcore music) is brilliant. The lyrics are pretty good along with the style of the music. I'd have to say if anything this is one hardcore band I’m actually glad i found and started listening too, they're amazing, talented for sure and know what they're doing. I hope this band blows up in their music careers they rightfully deserve to get big in the hardcore music scene. Very good song, I'd recommend it to someone honestly.
Breakdown:
Vocals: Wow, where
to start on these vocals, all i can say is this maybe one of the most talented
"hardcore" vocalist I've heard, i did end up looking up
some more hardcore bands, none really compare to this vocalist.
Instruments: For a
hardcore band the instruments structuring is decent and worth the
listening too.

This album is The Jokerr collection of disses towards tons of other artists. I'd have to say The Jokerr is one of the best rappers when it comes to dissing people. I love this album, i don't always agree with disses honestly. But The Jokerr seriously shows the hate towards them in his lyrics. His flow is pretty sweet on these songs also his lyrics and his raps fit the flow so perfectly. The Jokerr has his own musical style that's for sure and he shows that in almost every song on this album, one diss that got my attention fully was Justus Where Are You, that song stood out so awkwardly you can hear how pissed The Jokerr was and he shows that in his vocals very well. A few songs that did stand out, Justus Where Are You, One Man Army, I Gave It All, The Real One. Those songs really stood out in their structuring, lyrics and style. One thing i like about the song "The Real One" was the MySpace bit. "The music player pops out and it's annoying, why'd they do that?" I just laughed so hard at that, i have no clue why either. This album is worth the money to buy if you like disses and rap.
Breakdown:
Vocals: The Jokerr’s vocals wow what to say honestly, his vocals
and raps are so good. His vocal style changes in almost every song, nothing is
the same, and everything is different which is highly enjoy-able.
Beat: The beats on this album are something to listen too really,
i did enjoy them and how the vocals flow with beat, when the beat gets louder
so do the lyrics, softer so does the vocals, all kinds of stuff really.
