Well... this CD called ’On Broken Foundations’ from British band POSTMORTEM PROMISES is a hard thing for me to swallow. We are talking heavy modern death metal, or deathcore if you like, here with both growls and aggressive vocals.

The guitars are heavy and massive and the guitarists are able to come up with some quite interesting riffs here and there but sadly with no real impact. And the then we have the vocals... and I must admit that I’ve heard way better growlers out there and the “modern-way-of-doing-it” annoys the hell out of me. I feel that the vocals are a bit too upfront so the music is drowning a bit.

Most of the songs are okay but it’s not a CD that I want to listen to over and over again. There are better deathcore bands out there in my humble opinion.

But I’m sure that there are takers for this release so don’t hesitate to check it out if deathcore with heavy and massive guitars is your thing.
