Things I'm not sick of yet: Bands that sound like Misery Signals. Insert Of Virtue, a band Hands posted about this week on Facebook. I checked out 1 song and instantly downloaded the record.
Heartsounds is a fantastic melodic hardcore record that I honestly like more then We the Gathered's Believer and Your Memorial's Atonement. It combines the richness that Believer had with the melodic variation that was on Atonement.
An Absence of Clarity is an instrumental intro that's nice but just like the title suggests, is an absence of clarity. Great guitar riff that builds so nicely and perfectly that I was excited for the opening track but then the build just ends and the track is over. Damaged is a great song but could have been killer if the intro had been build into it better. Tracks like No Light and Isolation are really what help make this record stand out. It's just enough of a break from the hardcore onslaught without losing any intensity that give In Virtue a lift over some of their melodic hardcore peers.
If you love melodic hardcore, I highly recommend checking this record out. I'm super impressed with Heartsounds.
