2024 Unique Leader Records

I'm in the middle on this album. We have deathcore of the highest musical order, mixed with a helping of brutal death metal to anchor it in a style that I can stand. However, there's a lot of what I call unnecessary jammin' on this one, with riffs that are always on the edge of dissonant, and we know how much I dislike that. What saves this record is the fact that sometimes I do like to hear what amazing musicians can accomplish even if it's not a style I want to hear. It's worth one listen, anyway. I think the thing that stands out the most to me on the record is the singing. This is one brutal vocalist who can handle a ton of different styles, and his chops are superb. He can clear up his diction and pronounce things if he wants, or he can go deep and guttural and unintelligible and sounds fine either way. I liked that part of the record anyway, and it's the same reason I can stand Slaughter to Prevail. Good singers save things for me.
