Metalcore. The word makes even the most daring of music fans send a chill up their spine. Recently, there has been a flood of new bands emulating the metal/hardcore sound. Much like the "nu-metal" trend of a few years ago, there are a wealth of bands that fail to seperate themselves from the pack.
But everything you think you know about metalcore is about to change. Dow is Down, South Carolina's finest are about to completely change your perspective of metalcore. Their Ninjachicken Recordings debut, "The Old Man Who Shat Himself" is 4 tracks of seething metalcore brutality. The foursome tear through the material relentlessly with a passion and ferocity unseen by many acts today. Bringing to mind such acts like the Dillinger Escape Plan and Every Time I Die, traces of punk and jazz can also be detected in this groups sound. Intricate guitar riffs, punishing drum beats, groove-laden bass lines, and fearsome vocals all weave into one reckless sound. The track, "Through the Eyes of Deception" is a perfect portrait for what this group is all about, which is brutal yet creative metal meets hardcore.
Brace yourselves, because the saviors of the metal/hardcore genre have arrived.
