Emmure- Goodbye To The Gallows (3/10)
Look out everyone, it's Emmure's crushing Victory Records debut- a ten song mosh fest concept album about (drumroll please...) a guy whose girlfriend dumped him! Man, I remember when my girlfriend dumped me, and listening to this album just brought all those old feelings back. It's powerful dude, I just moshed my little body all over my room for like forty minutes!
Alright, let's get this over with. This cd is a joke. It opens with a breakdown, closes with a breakdown, and the middle is all breakdowns (minus one hilarious allusion to disturbed) and a 4 second "tech" chromatic run.
On top of that, the lyrics are pathetic. It literally is a concept album about a guy and a girl breaking up. The guy is really upset for nine songs, and on the tenth, he kills himself! That's gotta suck!
Moving on, obviously, being a mosh band, the musicianship isn't very impressive. The drummer has some pretty complex kick parts, and he seems to be fairly fast, but it's nothing to dwell on really. I feel very certain that you can judge the caliber of a musician by not just the technical complexity of his parts, but also the quality and creativity of the music being played, and in that respect, you really can't call these guys musicians. They're just dudes in a band.
The vocalist provides the only redeeming points on this record, because his voice is monstrous (albeit with an enormous amount of voice distortion) and he is very versatile as far as style. He has a large screaming range, he talks, he yells, he sings, and each are done well and are pretty memorable, despite the idiocy of the words being sung.
Production-wise it's a Victory Release. Triggered drums, crushing guitar that never leaves the gain below 10.9, and some bass drops and post production effects to tie up the package. There's no creative tracks or really anything about this album that expressly sets them apart at all from anyone, and it's no surprise. I don't know if you've heard of them or not, but this band is doing very well already by playing what kids want to hear. People don't want to take music seriously. It's all a big joke.
