Hey guys I just want to start off by wishing everyone a happy new year and hope that everyone had a great holiday season as well. I'm going to kick off the new year with the first song of the week. Lately, I have been searching for some new music and bands to listen to, and I have found a band I really like. They are new band, getting their start this year and are known as Woe, Is Me. I have began to take a liking to bands that successfully mesh clean and screamed vocals as well as hardcore breakdowns with electronic elements. Woe, Is Me has definitely shown me that they can mesh all of these elements together to create some great music.
My song of the week selection is (&) Delinquents. This song features a great balance of decently screamed vocals with excellently sang vocals. Clean singer, Tyler Carter, has to be one of my favorite clean singers and has a great vocal range that rivals that of Johnny Craig. The screamed vocals not only help add heaviness to the vocal range, but further enhance the clean vocals. The song always has some sort of background electronics going on, usually giving an underlying techno-like beat. Throughout the song, the rest of the band offers melodic and breakdown sections to the music giving the whole song a bunch of different sounding sections and a lot of contrast. I think what I like about this song the most is the fact that they are combining a lot of different elements that work well together. Posted below is the music video for the song and feel free to comment and let me know what you think.
Woe, Is Me- (&) Delinquents
I think Woe, Is Me is a band I could come to like. They have a good mix of screaming and singing. When I first started to listen to ADTR I thought, what is this? I didn't really hear anything. But once I became familiar with the songs they became my favorite band. Is Woe, Is Me one of the bands announced for warped tour?
ReplyDeleteyea they announced them for warped tour, i definitly want to see them live.
