Within Destruction - DEMON CHILD (Out 28th)

lament nebula
#

Oooh, new Animetal, let's goooooo

scenic cobalt
#

please.... just please i hope to god they don't make it cringe like animetal....

thorny saffron
#

^

#

Last album was super good

#

All the new songs have been

#

Not great to say the least

scenic cobalt
#

Their last ep was phenomenal

#

Tarnished goes super fucking hard

thorny saffron
#

I wasn't a huge fan

fading mountain
#

Nah dude

#

They peaked with the purple album

#

that was super neat

#

what was it called? lotus or something idk

#

DEATHWISH is goated still

scenic cobalt
#

Lotus was alright. It's definitely not their best works, but its alright

lament nebula
#

Yokai's a better package in my opinion. Lotus is still awesome, though.

thorny saffron
#

lotus is by far their best work imo

scenic cobalt
#

They shoulda mixed their anime with their deathwish

#

That legit would be some actual fucking fire instead of animetal ngl

scenic cobalt
#

cause so far this aint sounding like it

#

sounds slightly better than animetal tho

lament nebula
#

Wait, did they sign with Sumerian Records?

thorny saffron
#

that sounds like a step up from animetal

#

but the mix sounds kinda shitty

#

but its twitter compression

lament nebula
#

Sounds octane-y

#

I'll reserve my full judgment for whenever the track comes out

thorny saffron
#

i am 100% down for octane deathcore

#

i doubt this song is heavy

#

but if it is that would be cool

#

these guys can make really good choruses

#

i am bias because i only like lotus from them

#

so im looking forward to more of that

lament nebula
#

I'm more partial to Yokai, as I think that combined their deathcore elements with the trap bits nicely.

thorny saffron
#

couldnt get into yokai

#

it just sounds super empty with its mix

lament nebula
#

I might have to relisten to it, it has been a minute since I gave it a listen

thorny saffron
#

i should relisten

#

i just put on a track to confirm my complaint

#

and yeah the mix is what put me off

lament nebula
#

My first track from Within Destruction was Sakura (mainly because of the Jason Richardson feature).

#

It also inspired my first somewhat anime-styled OC, Saku. In a way, I owe the album credit for part of my current direction in art.

scenic cobalt
#

and they refuse to do that

#

i don't really understand the obsession with them keeping to anime after making slamming deathcore when they could just combine the two and make something extremely unique

#

I love experimentation and Lotus and Yokai are the best to keep true to a sound and experiment... like holy fuck they released a slamming deathcore ep not too long ago that slapped.... so with that logic... you'd thing they would just go and combine the two sounds and do something absolutely insane with it

lament nebula
#

YES

thorny saffron
#

basically

#

with a proper mix that would be the best shit in YEARS

scenic cobalt
#

like I said, I do not understand why this band wont just go and do that and are sticking to the most generic octanecore shit imaginable

#

there's a vision that they just do not see at all

thorny saffron
#

they went from the slam ep to animetal

#

either they dont care or they are confused

#

they could get really creative with it

#

if they are unsure how to approach it have somebody help them write it

scenic cobalt
#

like... this is a no-brainer type situation

thorny saffron
scenic cobalt
#

they have 2 things that work well with fans, and they could easily combine the two

thorny saffron
#

in every aspect

lament nebula
#

Maybe... I have a theory that I hope is not true, but would explain this new octanecore stuff.

scenic cobalt
thorny saffron
scenic cobalt
#

cause the EP was a massive step up for them musically that goes back to deathwish

thorny saffron
#

i didnt enjoy the ep at all

scenic cobalt
#

I mean to be fair... I'm done with anime only after lotus... that's the last time they should really do that avenue. Just combine the sounds ffs

thorny saffron
#

and this song isnt out for me yet

thorny saffron
#

thats all i want

lament nebula
#

What if they made the EP to satisfy those fans who REALLY wanted them to go back to their deathcore sound?

thorny saffron
scenic cobalt
#

make a song like toxic or nightmare but combine it with deathwish or tarnished

#

there

#

actual banger new shit

thorny saffron
scenic cobalt
#

that no band in that genre is doing currently that isnt just slam

#

or grind

lament nebula
#

Perhaps they're getting the octane songs out of the way first because they HAVE deathcore stuff happening.

thorny saffron
#

whats the best song on the recent ep

#

ill give it a spin

#

i just realized the ep is about elden ring

#

lmao

lament nebula
#

Either way, I'll listen to this thing when it drops tonight at 11 PM.

#

I really hope it's good. I don't remember disliking Animetal, I just thought it was kinda okay.

thorny saffron
#

same although i kinda hated animetal

#

i have high hopes for this

lament nebula
#

I will say, the promo artwork is fire.

thorny saffron
#

yeah the recent ep just isnt for me

#

much prefer lotus with its better production

scenic cobalt
thorny saffron
#

i dont even hate deathcore i just enjoy certain types of it

scenic cobalt
#

honestly... if I wanted anime metalcore or some shit, I'd either listen to Lotus or Yokai, or just go listen to the band Desolate

#

and new WD metalcore is not hitting at all

#

so maybe it's a sign that they just need to combine their roots with anime and make anime deathcore

#

it would quite literally be the best shit any band could do...

#

if they do it right

lament nebula
#

True

#

This band has had such an odd evolution, and I kinda love that.

lament nebula
#

Okay, relistening to Animetal... call me crazy, but this is actually really enjoyable.

cedar totem
#

Animetal hits, the post-chorus thing is just pretty cheesy

#

I like the breakdown, but this one's just alright

lament nebula
#

About to listen to it, hope it's good

#

I've amped my expectations waaaaay down

cedar totem
#

Also am I going crazy or is everyone starting their metalcore songs the same way

#

Maybe I'm being too cynical but a metalcore song instantly loses points for me when its first verse is a bass beat with slightly distorted vocals

lament nebula
#

Not a bad song, didn't really go as Octane as I thought it was going to

#

I'm curious if they have an album planned soon or not

cedar totem
#

Within Destruction - DEMON CHILD

thorny saffron
#

this is pretty nice

#

nothing super special but i think this will grow

scenic cobalt
#

it's better than animetal

#

but it's sounds so very forgettable

civic tulip
#

exactly how i’d describe it💀

scenic cobalt
#

The intro is pretty good, but then it just becomes generic octancore I'll forget in a day

#

safe to say this band is just not hitting after Lotus and Tarnished

#

probably best to just listen and combine the two genres for something far greater

#

anyways yea it's a 6/10 song

#

still better than animetal

thorny saffron
#

super catchy chorus

#

but thats about it for me

#

6.5 for rn

#

i will return to it from time to time and maybe it'll grow

#

ill listen again tmr

scenic lynx
#

Lol am i the only one who thinks animetal was like their best song

#

Damn

thorny saffron
#

yeah that shits ass lmao

#

one of the worst songs of the year for me

#

the animetal animetal go go is just a hard pass for me

#

but the ending chorus is good

#

worst song of the year is a bit extreme

scenic lynx
#

Very extreme

thorny saffron
#

but its pretty bad

scenic lynx
#

There was an entire erra album

thorny saffron
#

lmfao

#

erra jabs at any moment

#

i respect it

#

ill give the song another listen

scenic lynx
#

Never stop the hustle

thorny saffron
#

yeah just

#

get rid of this

#

all of it

#

and the song is pretty good

#

i dont hate this song as much now that its been a while

scenic lynx
#

Tbf tho worst song of the year is like

#

Magnetic by wage war

#

Or smth like that

thorny saffron
#

i dont know exactly what ive hated the most this year

#

maybe blue reverie by erra

#

or cure

#

god that fucking chorus is awful

#

i dont even completely hate the erra record now

#

but the songs that suck really really suck

#

about 5 songs i really like

#

and the rest ill never go back to

scenic lynx
#

The wss album also had some real stinkers

#

Then 1 song that was one of the best this year

thorny saffron
#

to the flowers?

scenic lynx
#

Yup

thorny saffron
#

AH

#

THANK YOU

#

dopestick

#

is probably the worst song of the year

#

for me at least

#

wait what fucking song am i thinking of

#

ah it was self hell

#

not dopestick

#

my bad

scenic lynx
#

You mean dopesick?

#

would be funny if it was about a really dope stick though

thorny saffron
#

i thought it was stick for whatever reason

scenic lynx
#

i found this stick in the wooods, it fuckin rules!

thorny saffron
#

yeah that wss record was weird great fucking songs mixed with huh? what? why? whar?

#

and a GOD awful mix

#

i can get over the mix though

scenic lynx
#

To the flowers felt like an «even a broken clock is right twice a day» moment

thorny saffron
#

but like the downgrade from sleep society to this is just

#

vile

scenic lynx
#

The music video always hits so hard

#

Def best mv this year

#

Reminds me of manchester by the sea so it gives me crippling depression

thorny saffron
#

my favorite mv was probably allts recent single

#

i just like the visuals alot

#

the transition from ''YOU ARE ALL YOU NEED'' to a song like leave me alone

#

you wouldnt think it was the same band

#

released in 2021 sounds 2 decades newer then the song released in 2024

#

crazy

#

well thats my wss rant concluded im off to bed

scenic lynx
#

Paledusk mv’s are always 10/10, so maybe gungunda

#

That’s also one of the best songs this year

thorny saffron
