First impression: beautiful artwork! Second impression: horrible vocals and shitty bass drum sound! The music is pretty okay posthardcore with screamo influences but the vocals sound like those pseudo screamo/emo bands that draw their inspiration from Billy Talent or Matchbox Romance or something. Sorry, I can’t take that serious… And the bass drum sounds like this was a shitty metal record.
This is just a demo. So I’ll put it like this: put some real emotion in the vocals instead of pure screaming for screaming’s sake and sounding oh, so extreme! And next time try to record your material with someone who has listened to bands like Funeral Diner or The Saddest Landscape in order to not sound like a band of 15-year-old fashion emos who will never get what emo is/was about! This band got potential and with some slight changes they could be quite good but on this record they sound like Magnet Club in Berlin. For those who don’t know this club: you don’t want to know it!
