Monotony in deathcore is very obvious especially this time around. Trying to be brutal like brutal death but becoming "xXxBROOTALxXx" as it's more hardcore influenced (but not saying hardcore is bad). Just 10 second d-beats, 1 minute breakdowns, 3 minute breakdowns of breakdowns, 20 more minutes of breakdowns breaking down the breakdowns that have been broken down, etc. One whole album will eventually just be 7-string B-note "xXxBROOTALxXx" breakdowns with no variation of discordance; musically trying to plummet someone without a god damn hammer. This influence has been applied to every type of band within "hardcore" and people still appreciate it; some though use some other influences but it's how effective sonically it is which no band I heard within the "scene" does well and imaginatively (I am talking to you I Wrestled A Bear Once).
But let's go to how breakdowns of deathcore influence the breakdowns of deathcore. The video is by Oceano. The newest hippest deathcore band dominated by boring breakdowns and other brief stuff influenced by Whitechapel (Jack The Ripper and all, why chose the name which reminds me of Jesus Christ, marrige, and Judas for Christ sake?). Signed by...
EARACHE RECORDS!
The label that helped propell grindcore to a larger audience has now turned to a deathcore label?! TRYING TO BE HIP AND GET LAID BY 16 YEAR OLD FAT CHICK FANS OF BROKENCYDE DIGBY PEARSON?!
I kid. But sign a band whose mostly known for "violent" acts of shows? Fuck, black metal bands from Norway have more vile shows than a mediocre band who gives us a notion that the substance is just breakdowns. Nothing wrong with deathcore bands I will say but like every type of music (including post-metal) will have bad performer(s).
Let's get to the video. Boring, check. Boring imagery, check. Boring performance, check. Boring atmospherics, check. Boring breakdowns, check. Boring boring, check. Earache has made a bad decision.
Oh yeah one more thing. GUITARIST, BASSIST, AND VOCALIST WHO HAVE MUDBUTT AND ARE STILL PLAYING?! Fucking check!
This is not the worst though. I would say give a year or so until something different can happen. Either pure death metal or pure hardcore punk. We will have to wait and find out. At least they are better than Scenacide Silence.
Going to listen to Oxbow. Eugene is black and he is awesome.
