DIE NO MORE – Destruction Complete

24th August 2016 0 By Jon Deaux

Die No More from Carlisle are set to release their brand new E.P Destruction Complete 9th September & what an E.P it is to.

Proper old school metal with shredtastic solos, thundering drums & rhythm guitars with more crunch than a Kellogs breakfast cereal.

Opening track Save Yourself starts off with a Geiger counter before the crescendo of pure groove melts your ears. Marcs vocal cuts through the distortion with a clear vocal. The harmonious chorus is brief yet effective & should provide a lovely call & response in a live situation. The solo is understated before leading into a brief drum solo. They have packed so much technical abilty into just 4:30.

Mirage is up next that features Kevs lead work straight off the bat & luring you into a false sense of security with a touch of prog. The track then kicks back into familiar territory & then around 3:40 Kev kicks back in & shreds like a cheese grater. This is a guitar driven track in the realm of Vicious Rumors.

There’s no break before The Enemy Within comes in with a groove that will make you look a prat if you start a circle pit on your own in the living room. But it’s that kind of track.

Then there’s the opus that is Destruction Complete. Clocking in at just under 8 minutes this is an incredibly brave track & shows just how much these guys are proficient musicians. I’m fairly certain that when the rest of us were out getting drunk & laid in our teenage years, these boys were quite happy in their bedrooms just playing with their instruments.

It’s pretty proggie but wouldn’t sound out-of-place on Onslaughts In Search Of Sanity album. Absolutely stunning & my personal favorite on this opus. Totally faultless & flawless.

For a fairly young band this is a seriously mature release & highly recommended if you like your metal loud, heavy & just a tad thrashy.

If you’re nearby, go to the record release party & celebrate a top-notch E.P
