The attack on the low chugs = boner achieved, sickest guitar sound ever
I am not sure how MOTIONLESS IN WHITE manages to keep flying the mallgoth flag in 2012, but I am glad that they do. I have always had a little bit of a soft spot for bands who hit that sweet spot where they are some combination of gothic, scene, metalcore and/or hard rock, but sadly those bands seem to come along less and less frequently every year.
My second-favorite track on the record, ft Brandan from BLEEDING THROUGH
I really wanted to love the older MIW records, but they just didn’t quite click with me. Like, they were good but not great. I felt like there was potential for 18V-levels of greatness that just needed to be unlocked, like in a teen movie where the shy, nerdy girl takes off her glasses, lets down her hair and instantly becomes super hot. Apparently the magic ingredient for MIW was working with our friends at AUDIOHAMMER STUDIOS, because this new album is head and shoulders above any of their old shit. Also, one of the sickest guitar sounds I have ever heard in my life.
Verses sound like Bury Your Dead + some background synths. This is not a negative comment.
I miss Terry Your Dead
Wasn’t that the guy from Sevendust?
Nah its the Animals as Leaders dude
was the guy from Candiria dont you guys know anything about music culture???
my bad.. he has come leaps and bounds since rapping for Stuck Mojo
This would get those Tim Burton loving kids moshing hard as fuck. I’ll back it.
p sure that one of the guys in this band actually dresses up as characters from burton movies for the shows lol
Old MIW was fun as fuq.
New stuff is taking it’self was too cereal.
crabdjent….
Gothic Post-crabdjentcore.
I hear some Disturbed influences @ 2:45. Is Disturbed old enough to be incorporated in scene-music under the “retro” flag?
nope… disturbed is going to be incorporated under classic rock for poors one day with the likes of motley crue, nirvana, linkin park, korn, and other former popular bandz
“classic rock for poors”
lolol A+
I thought the synths sounded familiar, then i looked it up and found out TIM SKOLD also produced the album. Made sense since A-M-E-R-I-C-A sounded like what Manson should sound like in 2012(read not shitty as balls).
that 2nd MIL vid is leik Cradle of Filth + scene metalcore, so it probably makes tr00 metalheads rage so hard that their heads end up asploding
I really liked old MIW. They were one of the first bands I saw live, back in 08 with Alesana. They’re all really chill bros and some of the most genuinely nice people I’ve ever met. However, I’m not really digging this album :/ too much Slipknot/Marilyn Manson influence imo.
my inner mallgoth is shitting out of his dick so hard at those ‘knot riffs with those mansonisms brah.
i for one welcome our new mansoncore overlords (and their tripp pants)
MIW ALESANA TOUR 2013
wood go just to eyefuck groupies/10 (sup, last few scene girls left)
They’re fading fast! We need jelly bracelets and 10cc mascara stat!
wood go just for the cute tortas (thick bishes) n kewt water balloon bishes galore!!! you know theres bound to be one with a face so kewt dat you wouldn’t mind dat thickness for the fitness bby hehe >;-D
in be4 im labeled a stereotypical mexi whale slayer/10
I’m mexican, and I’m going to use the word “tortas” as you did from now on because its absolute brilliance. slowclap.gif
I saw that tour in 08. MIW Alesana and the Greeley Estates. Shit was 2 fly
CAUSE THAT’S WHAT YOU DESERVE YOU DISGUSTING PEICE OF SHIT lol
also the song where he does an “eeeeYUH” and then a “bleh” that shits wild.
sadly it seems the general consensus about this album is that it sucks
which is odd because everyone’s jocking slipknot now and parts on this album sound exactly like them
oh shit well would you look at that, the general consensus fucked up. MIW’s new album slaps harder than my sloppy dick against someone else’s girlfriend’s dripping twat-hole.
i think it’s just another case of people being giant faggots and arbitrarily deciding to not like a band they otherwise would love for something gay like how they look or whatever (see also Winds Of Plague, who they would love if the guys in the band looked like skinnyfat losers with long greasy hair)
That, I don’t see why nerds don’t jock The Great Stone War more. It’s pretty fucking sick and has everything guitarnerds would love about that djent-y borefest that was Born of Osiris’ new turd.
TGSW is the only WoP album I didn’t really like, and a classic example of IMN’s ignoring something they would jizz over if it wasn’t made by 250 pound dudes in puffy jackets and snapbacks.
its not the way they look being the reason why me no likey WOP its…. um…. yea.. ur right… I hated dat “DRUG FREE FOR SATAN” backpatch back in 06-07 when i saw em at one of the first cali metalfests and i wood still get raegahol if i saw dat shit today!!
got i hate dat sxe merch!!! somebody do a post on bad bitches or re-nu-metuhl to make me stay posi stat!!!
Latinoheat.. Im going to talk in full blown Australian here..
YOU ARE THE FUNNIEST CUNT ON THE INTERNET, SRS
The Slipknot parts on this are really good, hope they ditch the metalcore choruses and go full on nu nu-metal.
that would make me sad (because i hate nu-metal and slipknotcore), but from a marketing perspective that would probably be a good idea since that is what all the kids are into these days
also see: re-thrash and jesuscore aka shoo-daze-core aka reverb-core!
D i could not agree more with this post. ive alway wanted to like this band and now i FINALLY have a legitimate reason to. rekard goez hard. backt.
dont why you’re praising that guitar tone so much
super generic ts9/5150 shit right there and its even a bit low in the mix
sounds liek u ‘rly know ur shit when it comes to guitars’ bro
just letting you know the score
Thanks for that bro, can’t imagine a guy living his whole life thinking that a ts9/5150 guitar tone sounds good.
Inb4 guitar nerds try and start a huge argument and nobody replies
no argument here, its just another generic metal tone
ONLY AXE-FX II IS REAL!!!
silly cunt I thought you knew sarge likes generic shit
second song sounds like dimmu borgircore
yup… it sure does… they better release an album sounding similiar to stormblast or else im gonna be pissed!!!
Is slipmansoncore the next big thing?
meh, not rlly into black metal
a+++
idk, it’s just the manson stuff i heard that i didn’t like so much. rlly wish the entire album sounded like Black Damask and If It’s Dead.
Devil’s Night is sweet. Didn’t think I’d like it based on the “mallgoth” description but luckily I didn’t judge a book by its cover amirite???
I like the Terry Your Dead feel and the chorus is catchy. Would pirate/10
Excited for this band because i want to mosh to slipknotcore riffs but am legit terrified of a crowd of maggots(see: Duality Official Music Video)
also Abigail on their last album went hard as fuqq
I skipped all the comments…sounded like really shit slipknot to me.
Ayyy Sarge, you ever heard of a band called I Am Ghost? They’re sorta a more “early 00′s” version of this band, which makes sense because they were from around that time, and based on the way you’re digging MIW, I couldn’t help but mention them. Used to jock their first EP and debut album really hard in 7th/8th grade, pretty “pre-twilight post-hardmetalcore” type shit, worth checking out/10.
they were garbage because dude was like 40 and couldnt sing live…but they had a cute bish in the band for awhile.
I actually had no idea the dude was that old, but yeah I remember the violinist being cute minus the whole band-associated aesthetic.
