The album starts off with an piano laden "Intro" that soothes the listener while what sounds like thunder is going off in the background. A guitar gently riffs at the end which transitions into "Shadows Over Me". The fast riffs, screaming and melody brings to mind older As I Lay Dying. There's even bits and pieces of the song that could bring to mind The Ghost Inside. The single "We That Should Not Be" hits with a force from the opening catchy riff to the first breakdown. They also shot a video for the song which can be found on Youtube. The song is fast, aggressive and just a good song to get pumped to.
The track" Painted Red" starts off and goes right for your throat. It continues to be brutal and melodic at the same time. It's a very pissed off song. "The Fear In Her Eyes" and "Snowblind" closes out the EP. Both songs keep the pace going with their brand of melodic metalcore.
Verdict:
Amongst Carrion brings very aggressive music to the masses. With bands like Miss May I and I Killed The Prom Queen getting bigger and bigger, it's hard to overlook the talent that Amongst Carrion has. Don't sleep on Amongst Carrion.
