Metal pretty much stopped evolving into anything interesting once bands like Mr. Bungle, and Praxis stopped playing the heavy stuff. The fact is, most metal is a one liner, it's formula, rehashed power chords played by people who should probably be playing football or whacking off somewhere else. Some of the Norwegians are doing some interesting stuff, but most of the shit from the states is just weak brute rock with no intelligence. Sorry man, this band is crap.

[glitchcutprods]

well, despite how you might feel about the industry or this band in particular, one of the things that fuels the industry is devotion to their art, and the resilliency to play out, without having been heard out. These guys rock harder than just about everything on the radio, so I remain in disagreement with your statements. Minus the Mr. Bungle and Praxis comments, I haven't heard em, but respect all musicians regardless of whether or not I like their shit. :)

why did they overdub the studio recording on this video? They sound like shit , I'll bet they sound even worse live. That guys voice is completely retarded. Sounds like a nagging mom screaming at her kids to clean up their rooms. There's nothing powerful about this sound at all. Reminds me of that gay lincoln park stuff. You forgot to throw in the rap stuff,,,heh heh,,metal is dead. Please no more of this rehashed garbage.

[glitchcutprods]

using the studio recording was my choice, mostly because of the way I film. Metal isn't dead, it's evolving. If your mom screamed at you like this to clean your room, maybe you should seek professional help. Regardless, this was good enough to get signed, so what's your issue? jealousy? Probably, it's ok to be nothing, that in itself is something. Have a nice day. This is directed at you too DEQR. I'd just rather not waste any energy responding to your seemingly endless bullshittings.

[loafpork]

Just because they were signed doesn't mean shit. Look at the endless catalogs of garbage the music industry continues to subject the public to. The only reason these kind of bands get signed is simply because someone thought they might be marketable. This has nothing to do with originality or quality. It's crap, get over it, I doubt they'll see more than one EP out of the deal. It's how the industry works. The melodic singer is fucking annoying as hell, he does sound like someone's mom yelling.

[glitchcutprods]

everyone's entitled to their opinions. Aside from being signed, these guys are generating far more views per day on their myspace page than most other "national" acts. In addition, they are being invited into some serious studios with producers who have worked in the industry for decades. If you think the singer sounds like someone's mom screaming, then more power to you, but just because you don't appreciate it, doesn't mean it isn't worth appreciating. It sounds like you need to get over it.:)

there's not a single song i've heard from these guys that hasn't totally blasted me away,great band!

[Irockyou38]

AMAZING

[morphyis]

You know the band is good when people get in heated debates over the current state of metal on a video of them. BTW Ekotren is the best new (to me) band that i have found anywhere. Haters are just confused admirerers. If you don't like the way they sound then why spend so much time on their video arguing. Go listen to the fag music that makes up most of the radio play these days.

@loafpork

Pantera are acceptable by the way. Its more 1349, vader, dew scented, fracture point, maloeaveant creation for me, so stop assuming, never works out well, especially over the internet. I didnt say mr bungle didnt have a metal influence didnt even imply it, i simply said if you think metal is dead because mr bungle and praxis stopped playing heavy stuff, then your a fucking bad joke mate XD

[ScarsOfTheCrucifix]

@loafpork

LOL oh god the irony, i wasnt saying you were saying they were death metal either, dipshit. I was saying, ever heard of death metal? meaning you clearly havnt if you think metal is dead. so i think its you that needs to know what someones saying before you start 'yapping on'. Good day, scrotead

[loafpork]

@ScarsOfTheCrucifix I'm not saying those bands were Death Metal you dipshit. I'm saying they were an example of bands who were influenced by metal, and made something more interesting. You should take more time and try to comprehend what people are saying before you start yapping and getting your feelings hurt. If you think Bungle didn't have a metal influence, then you're obviously a musical idiot.. go listen to Pantera and get hard thinking about Phil and Dimebag Darryl. moron

[loafpork]

@ScarsOfTheCrucifix Then go listen to it.

[ScarsOfTheCrucifix]

@loafpork

Im absolutely astounded that you based the death of metal on the demise of mr fucking bungle and praxis....are you for real? Also, there are over 150 countries in the world genuis, just because the US hasnt got any bands that meet your expectation dosnt mean theres hundreds others that wont. but then again, if you think that mr bungle is heavy then your a lost cause... LOL MR BUNGLE! FUCK!

[ScarsOfTheCrucifix]

@loafpork

and the norwegians have been doing some, 'interesting stuff' since the 70's you bellend

[ScarsOfTheCrucifix]

@loafpork

your a fuckin retard, there is so many types of metal and different subgenres along with that, there are good bands coming up pretty often if you know where to look. Granted there is nothing unique about ekotren but that doesnt mean the whole of fucking metal is dead. Jesus christ i could list you hundreds of bands that are keeping metal alive this very moment. ever heard of death metal you stupid bitch? Just one out of many genres, which hundreds and thousands of bands still play.

[ScarsOfTheCrucifix]

Fucking brilliant, been a fan for years but only just got their album, couldnt find it anywhere and despite warnings that light the fire was the only good song, i got it and its fucking epic

[eknotix]

If Alter Bridge and Lamb of God made a song together this is what it would sound like.
