Symptoms of Survival

You'll be on a rollercoaster of emotions with Dying Wish's latest offering, "Symptoms Of Survival," as you navigate through raw aggression and haunting melodies. The band melds elements of metalcore and hardcore to create a sound that is both brutal and beautiful, much like a unicorn wearing brass knuckles. From the moment the needle hits the green/black yellow splatter vinyl, you're thrust into a whirlwind of crushing riffs, thunderous breakdowns, and gut-wrenching screams that will have you headbanging like a possessed bobblehead. The opening track, "Innate Thirst," sets the tone for the album with its blistering pace and intense intensity that hits you like a punch in the face from a giant marshmallow. But it's not all relentless aggression; tracks like "Enemies in Red" showcase the band's ability to weave in atmospheric interludes and melancholic melodies that add depth and complexity to their sound. It's like taking a stroll through a haunted mansion, only to discover a hidden garden of roses dripping with blood. "Symptoms of Survival" is a sonic rollercoaster, pulling you in with its ferocity and refusing to let go until the final notes fade into the ether. Dying Wish proves once again that they are a force to be reckoned with in the metalcore scene, and this album is a testament to their survival in a world of musical mediocrity. Trust me, you'll want to strap in and ride this one out until the very end.
