This is band that I saw last year play The Wolf Bar here in Maple Ridge.Hailing close by they are from Abbotsford and kick major ass and take no names.
Now this is a band that you either love or hate --this is in your face brutal metal. But also with an extreme amount of talent behind it all. How can you have both you ask? Well if you know metal and can appreciate it in all it's forms and all the talent it takes to play a style like this, riffs heavy bass -trigger happy drumming --vocals that make your ears bleed , then sign up for this EP has it all you could want.
Here is a rundown of what the four songs are about to give you some understanding as evil as the music may come across that this is still being played by human beings --not monsters as some of you may think!
Worthless:
-This song represents a person in your life that causes
you undue stress and pressure. They constantly bring you down and are a
negative force in your life. The catch phrase, “You smell like a bitch”
is drawing attention to the cowardice in their actions and tells the
story of their inability to help the situation and only serve to make it
worse. Close listeners of this track will be able to piece together the
story of how our relationship with previous members deteriorated.
Here is the music video for this one:
In Waves:
This song is about the path becoming more clear to
making things right again. Becoming focused on repairing an issue and
rebuilding a cause. This song represents the sheer will of not allowing
yourself to stay the victim but instead, taking massive action to
improve. As the final lyric of the song states, “Shatter Paradigms”.
Burn:
A decent into madness. The song discusses the fall into
the dark depths of hell while outlining mental illness. Listeners of
this song can hear references to famous depictions of damnation from
other literary worlds and even a very famous video game. Here is the music video for this one:
Morphine:
– On the surface, this song comes across as if being
about addiction to the powerful pain medication. In reality, it
represents the addiction to self loathing which can often manifest in
drug addiction. The song touches about issues with personal demons and
hatred for your own appearance which leads to depression.
All around this is one killer EP and also Dj Temple the lead guitarist did a play through video for "Burn" and it got played on Gear Gods only one of the most respected websites for many guitarists of many different styles of music, shows you how talented this kid is.
I talked to Dj about it and he was excited to see that he got on their website that morning.
