No, all I know is Jane Doe. Is it a better idea to hear No Heroes before this?
|
Ummm, wow, I just listened to this track "Dark Horse" ... this is fucking good dude

i think you'll find this more enjoyable, the vocals are less harsh - by no means clean singing or anything (most of the time), but not as abrasive as on jane doe. and more true to how jake bannon sounds live, imo i found axe to fall to be a better album than no heroes, but i would recommend listening to no heroes... well id recommend listening to their whole discog but that would take a while not to mention they feature genghis tron on a track all guest contributers: * Steve Brodsky (Cave In) * Adam McGrath (Cave In) * John-Robert Connors (Cave In, Doomriders) * Uffe Cederlund (Disfear, ex-Entombed) * George Hirsch (Blacklisted) * Brad Fickeisen (The Red Chord) * Hamilton Jordan (Genghis Tron) * Mookie Singerman (Genghis Tron) * John Pettibone (Undertow, Himsa) * Steve Von Till (Neurosis) * "Axe To Fall" features Blacklisted's George Hirsch providing backing vocals. * "Effigy" features Cave In's Steve Brodsky on lead guitar, Adam McGrath providing additional guitar and J.R. Connors performing drums. * "Wishing Well" features Disfear's Uffe Cederlund performing lead guitar and backing vocals. * "Cutter" features John Pettibone on backing vocals. * "Cruel Bloom" features Neurosis' Steve Von Till providing lead vocals. * "Wretched World" features Genghis Tron’s Mookie Singerman providing lead vocals. (from wiki) |
Yeah, I heard about Mookie performing on here, which is one of the reasons I'm interested. I'll probably listen to both albums, because I remember liking one of the songs from No Heroes a while back.
|
ill let you know now mookie doesnt really scream its pretty much all clean vocals that he does... so you arent disappointed like i was
|
Thanks for the heads up. I enjoy his clean singing though, so it's all good.
|
i cant imagine mookie cleanly singing, ive heard a lot about this lately. havent peeped it yet. Ill try to check it out today
|
Such a good album! Glad these latest leaks (portraits of past + converge) are sweet.

I quite like Axe to Fall. Hearing it inspired me to re-download Jane Doe and remember how amazing Converge can be.

i'm a big fan of Cave In's earlier metalcore stuff and only have Jane Doe from these guys, so this might have to be a straight cop... Unless you'd recommend another album foist?
|
this album is ok

in short, go for it |
yeah i am on a 'caring & killing' ting right now, the metal aspects on this record seems a little more trad-thrash so far... anyways better save it for the regular Converge thread if there is one.
p.s. i don't like it when this dude sings like at the end of Jane Doe, sort of ruins the atmosphere |

i wasn't a huge fan of the singing on jane doe either but by the end of the track it makes up for it. |
well this first album is halfway through now and on top of the thrash, it definitely has passages resembling older math rock i have heard (that would be err Polvo then), these guys were definitely paving the way for mathcore something wicked. you're right the polish is missing but it seems to have been a common problem when bands were finding the right production sound for these emerging genres of extreme metal. This is mah studying music for tomorrow =P
|
every albumof theirs has to have 2 ****ty slow tracks on it
