September 3rd, 2011 James Shotwell Artist: We Came As Romans
Album: Understanding What We’ve Grown to Be
Genre: Rock/symphonic rock
Label: Equal Vision Records
We Came As Romans place enormous emphasis on the positivity of the message in their music, and to be fair, it is a rather refreshing and encouraging perspective. It’s not, however, the most obviously brilliant thing about this album. You may stay for the keep-the-faith message, but you’ll show up in the first place for a rich and powerful release brimming with depth and sentiment. True, it’s a bit all over the place and packs everything but the kitchen sink into …
August 19th, 2011 James Shotwell Artist: The Devil Wears Prada
Album: Dead Throne
Genre: Metalcore
Label: Ferret
In all the time I’ve been listening to metal, I can probably count on my fingers the number of bands who get drastically better with each release the band puts out. The Devil Wears Prada is one of these bands. The Ohioans, at one point in their careers, were lumped into the overly stereotypical Rise records roster‚ and for good reason (they certainly fit with their label at that point).
June 13th, 2011 James Shotwell Alternative Press has partnered with The Devil Wears Prada to premiere the first song from their forthcoming album. Click here to stream “Born To Lose” and look below for a description from Vocalist Mike Hranica:
“The new record contains the heavy aspects of the Zombie EP, meshed with the melody of the full-lengths. ‘Born To Lose’ captures some of those elements and serves as a comprehensive preview to the album. By all means I’d call it our most emotional, well-written album to date.”
