MP3: As We Fight - Dead end streets
Denmark's As We Fight is the kind of band I would have been really excited about ten years ago. Their blend of melodic Swedish death-metal and modern metalcore sounded fresh when Darkest Hour first did it, not so much today. The double-vocal attack is an okay variation, but it's not enough to distinguish them from the pack. The songs are decidedly average with only a few exceptional memorable riffs popping up here and there. Listen to the track I've posted today - the breakdown riff in the middle is killer, but they kill the momentum by relying on hanging chords to make the transition. The two parts might as well be separate songs. And let's face it - this sound is a dead horse anyway. Unless you're going to push the genre into new territory, why bother?
