With Escape the Fate, Epitaph continue the trend they started with bands like From First to Last, Day of Contempt, and Matchbook Romance. That means that There’s No Sympathy for the Dead fits into the new school of emo/screamo/metalcore. If you can imagine Atreyu with a Drive-Thru Records singer, you should start to get the picture.

I just fkn love them. There's nothing more to say. I just fkn love them. both these guys cd's are soooo awsome and if you have seen them live then you all would agree and believe me when i say that they deliver!!! I'am russian and i say 8, because it's good fashionecore Yeah I Know Some People Dont Like Bands Like This. So, yesterday, I went to this show, and there were like three ska/emo/metalcore bands there. It's not necessary, really. People: stop forming bands. man..this record sucks..its time to tell victory and epitaph screamo/emo/metal will soon and hopefully be completelyy dead Ya, all this band is doing is taking the best things about the genre and putting them together. For the most part I like it and Epitaph has finally signed something from this genre thats worth listening to. But good god Brett, how many bands did ya have to go through to get to these guys? This review is spot on pretty good review. its kind of nice to see a reasonable review for a bad album every once in awhile instead of the joke ones (which are usually funny, but still) I like 'Situations.' However, that song isn't on this EP. I hope this band reads this review, climb off their high horse, and realize what they are. Edgy and Fresh, this ep has it all! I honestly love the hell out of this band. and lyrics about love that more often than not relate to violence, blood, flames, and death. Fuck this shit. Why doesn't Gurewitz just bitch slap kids that bring this to his table? Very nice review Matt; it's so easy to slag this entire genre, but you gave the record a fair shake and came up with some very reasonable concerns. if it weren't for their attitude they might've almost had a full star! *sigh*... |
