From: Hanover, PA
Sounds like: Metalcore



Forward Order are a young up and coming band from Hanover, PA which recently released this six track EP to the world in hopes of putting their best foot and sound forward in the Metalcore realm. "Nothing Set In Stone" is the opening track and is 45 seconds full of chaos. The next track "Rock Bottom" rings in with a flurry that older Slipknot had. The anger and passion of the harsh Metal sound is front and center on the track. There's a breakdown early in the track that simply destroys. The track is Metalcore cranked to 11. "Fake It" is the lead single off the EP and is a lightning rod of emotion and destruction. The track brings back the hunger of the early works of August Burns Red and Parkway Drive in its unbridled intensity. It's no wonder why it was chosen as a single. "Remember Me" gets right to it as it is a headbangers dream track. There's a slight Emmure sound to it but overall it transcends the Metalcore genre into a nice mix of Metal, Rock and Hardcore. "Sell Your Soul" is more melodic than the previous tracks. It features clean vocals and has a Bullet For My Valentine vibe to it. It switches things up and keeps things fresh, that's for sure. It's a standout track through and through. "Lost In The Shadows" is the closing track and it sums their signature sound up perfectly. The entire EP is a glorious romp through the wilderness of Metalcore.

Verdict:
Forward Order bring the mosh with their new "Hollow Beginnings" EP.
