From: Culpeper, VA
Sounds like: Metalcore/Post Hardcore
Contending are an upstart faith based Metalcore band from Virginia who are looking to make waves in the Metalcore scene with their newest single "Silence Of It All". Let's take a gander and see what they're all about. The track starts off with some strong drums before erupting into a ferocious breakdown. Melodic vocals take over and drives the track into a more Parkway Drive territory. The highly melodic chorus of the track soars with confidence and complexity. The track comes back down with a fury that's unmatched. The melodic verse keeps things going at a good pace before giving away to Feed Her To The Sharks type carnage. The chorus kicks in once again and is the calm before the storm. The storm is an earth shattering breakdown to close out the track. The band describes their sound perfectly as they lash out with energy, passion, and musical complexity. Check these guys out right away and you'll be locked onto your next favorite Metalcore band.
Verdict:
Contending come out swinging for the fences with their new "Silence Of It All" single.
