I have the three albums they've put out so far and their new album is supposed to be released tomorrow. I haven't seen a whole lot of talk about them around here, and they seem to be a pretty interesting band. Combining technical riffs with their down tuning and sense of rhythm makes a great combination. The vocals can be in the "deathcore" style a lot which works for them most of the time but it can be a turn off at times imo.

What are your opinions on this band?

C'mon someone has to listen to them.

Chiron maybe?

I gave the 5 songs on their myspace a listen. Their sound is crushing... heavy down-tuned stuff.

It was interesting, but nothing really memorable. Like you said, the vocals can be a turn-off at times and some of the metalcore-ish aspects irk me Maybe I need to listen to a full album before making any more judgements.

The "sound" reminds me of Otep.
