Sounds like: Melodic Metal





B.I.V (short for Born In Violence) are a Melodic Metal band from Missouri who recently released this three track EP. They also had a music video released for their single (and first track on the EP) "She". "She" kicks right into high gear with fast riffs and even harder Metal tendencies. The track has a driving force behind it by way of the incredible vocals and melodic Industrial tones. There's an early Chimaira influence to it overall. "Drowning In Fire" continues the Metal onslaught. From the opening blistering breakdown, you know they're not going to be messing around. The dark Industrial atmosphere of the track is amazing and helps give it that depth that few Metal tracks have nowadays. The soaring vocals combined with the building melodic riffs really help it veer into Metallica territory. "Malevolence" starts off slow but builds by way of piano and eventually erupts into a synth laden Metal breakdown. The track is an epic closer that wraps things up perfectly. The guitar solo on the track is out of this world! The end goes off the rails in such a good way that it'll help the listener remember for quite some time the name B.I.V. There's so much contained in the three tracks that it honestly feels like more than just three tracks. The sky is the limit for B.I.V and every fan of Metal needs to hear this EP right now!

Verdict:
B.I.V serve up a dish of Melodic Metal with a touch of Industrial that'll satisfy your appetite for fresh Metal.
