New Music Friday: September 3rd 2021

All the metalcore, post-hardcore and alternative rock releases and with picks from our staff.

Void of Vision – The Lonely People
Label: UNFD
Genre: Metalcore, Djent
(Spotify/Apple Music)

Joe recommends: Void of Vision pull no punches with their return, the breakdown on this will be one of the heaviest you will hear all year.

Avatar – Barren Cloth Mother / Going Hunting (Single)
Label – Black Waltz AB
Genre – Melodic Death Metal
(Spotify/Apple Music)

Dallis recommends: Grabbing influences from their early and aggressive debut days, as well as reaching into their neoclassical-inspired album Feathers and Flesh, Avatar show how incredibly diverse they can be.

Whitechapel – Lost Boy (Single)
Label – Metal Blade Records
Genre – Deathcore
(Spotify/Apple Music)

Tim recommends: Whitechapel emerges with a compelling new single, “Lost Boy”, to set the stage for their newest studio album, Kin. “Lost Boy” launches quickly into staccato riffs and groovy rhythm passages before giving way to clean guitar tones and a lovely chorus that confirms the direction taken in The Valley will be expanded upon.

Don Broco – Uber (Single)
Label – Sharptone Records
Genre – Alternative Rock

Max recommends: The UK rockers continue to venture into weirder and chunkier avenues with their newest single. Seriously fierce riffs, charismatic vocals and a quintessentially Broco lyrical style work to make “Uber” yet another hit for the group.
