This was Bailey's album of the month for January (the post is right here) and I noticed we didn't have a download.. Turns out I couldn't really find it anywhere, so I did the reasonable thing and purchased it myself.  We may be the first blog with this album (fingers crossed). These guys show a lot of potential and are definitely worth checking out.

Album Of The Month - January 2013 (Ross, The Only One You Should Care About)

Fall City Fall

Album: Victus
Genre: Hardcore
Location: Calgary, AB
Facebook
Preview: Anxiety Attack


Fall City Fall has changed from album to album leading up to this, and in my opinion each change has been an improvement.  Their last album they had a thrash metal feel, but the last song on the album, "Funeralationship", gave a hint to how this album would sound.  They incorporated their unique combination of screaming and speaking into their new songs seamlessly.  Go check them out on facebook, listen to their stuff and vote Ross 2016.

This band is very... different. Some very nifty guitar work and they just got signed to Blue Swan Records (Owned by Will Swan of Dance Gavin Dance) and will have numerous guest vocals from big names like: Kurt Travis, Johnny Craig, and Tillian Pearson (Pretty much anyone who has sung for DGD) on their upcoming album, which is set to be released in March. Can't wait to hear what they present.

Album Of The Month - January 2013 (Bailey)

My AOTM without a doubt goes to...

Vice Versa
Album: Timing
Genre: Post-Hardcore
Facebook
Preview "Absence: The Cure"

Vice Versa is a band that is going places. In my mind these are the best clean vocals released by a metal band so far this year. Natural, emotional, and super sexy, all the things that a vocalist in this genre of music needs; Vice Versa has. It is hard to believe that these guys only have 647 likes on Facebook. Go check their album out here.

However...
My favorite song of this month was Your Past, My Present's "A Conversation With Immortals". If the rest of their album delivered as much originality as this song it would have received my album of the month easily.

Album Of The Month - January 2013 (Travis)

Although not too many bands released an album this month, AOTM still proved to be a hard choice. I found myself drawn between two albums that are both tied, so without further adieu I present to you my Albums Of The Month choices.

Acrania
Album: The Beginning Of The End
Genre: Brutal Death Metal, Technical Deathcore
Facebook
Preview "A trophy to corporate disfigurement"

This was an EP I had been super excited for ever since I found their split EP. Turns out I liked their singers old band Hideous Miscreation (Who I may end up posting soon). The vocals are heavy, the guitars are heavy, the drums are heavy, this EP probably weighs two tons. The only issues I see in this EP are: 1, there isn't much material, new or old, but that's reasonable, it is just an EP, and 2, my favorite song by far was released as a single well before the actual album came out, and 3, they ended their pre-order bundle about 6 hours before I bought new merch </3. But anyways, definitely support these guys. I uploaded the EP right here.

The Beginning Of The End secures a 8/10

AND TIED WITH ACRANIA IS:

Fall City Fall
Album: Victus
Genre: Hardcore
Facebook
Preview: "Lovebirds"

Wow. This album is just such an improvement. I found these guys a long time ago on last.fm with their first EP. They have just gotten better and there is no wonder why they got signed to Victory Records (which is the reason this album will not be posted here). The vocals and lyrics have matured and they've made the album's sound diverse throughout the whole listen. Some songs will come at you very chaotic and give you a Dillinger Escape Plan feel, while others feel more like the song "funeralationship" from their last EP.

Victus scores a solid 8.5/10 for me.

Albums Of The Month Introduction

 We have chosen to do a monthly reflection on the releases which came out that month and choose our top album of them all. All of our uploaders, which is three so far (I guess now would be a good time to address this also; we are currently looking for more uploaders. We are willing to take up to ten other new uploaders to help this blog strive. If you are interested leave a comment in the chat box or talk to us on our facebook. Also remember, if you are applying to become an uploader, we are a non-profit organization and we try to only post small bands so they can gain more support. Please do not post anything too large and if you have questions you can email us at foreverfleshless@gmail.com or talk to us on our facebook as posted above.)

 Anyways for the album of the month we will all try to pin our top release of the month. We will give some reasons why and rate it to our best ability. Keep in mind, this album does not need to be underground, nor does it even have to be metal. We will link the band's facebook and other links so you guys can easily check them out if you haven't heard them and we will also supply a preview song so you can get a taste.

I absolutely love this band, in fact I just ordered this EP's merch bundle complete with a poster of the sexy album artwork, a shirt that features the design, and you guess it, the EP. The vocals are very dark and overwhelming and the riffs never get boring. The album artwork also won best design over at Duckcore's Underground Metal Awards (which is the other blog I upload at..). Can't wait to hear what these guys do next. Hail Satan and smoke meth.

This is not the type of music I normally listen to but something ticked with these guys, perhaps it is the epic guitar work or the fact that they make me want to punch myself in the throat (in a good way). Sorry that is band isn't super underground.
