Those Who Fear is a metalcore band from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and one of the newest additions to the Facedown Records family. Unholy Anger is their first album after their self-released EP in 2011.
The kind of metalcore they serve is hard hitting and focused on groove and lyrics. I also hear some deathcore influences but I wouldn’t call it deathcore overall. Continue reading »

I have had the privilege of writing reviews for some great iconic Christian bands, like Tourniquet for an example. Overcome are one of those iconic bands that are veterans at the game of hardcore, they have been around since about 1997, and carry the distinction of being the first band ever signed to the Christian hardcore label FACEDOWN RECORDS. Today the label can count itself as one of the foremost authorities in the hardcore Christian music scene. The fact that they have been around the block a couple of times sets my expectations high towards them with the release of their latest offering No Reserves. No Retreats. No Regrets. Also it shows that these guys are not just a passing fad, or one of the latest trend bands that are hitching a ride on the bandwagon of hardcore.
True to the form of one whom has been around for some time and has grasped hold of not only experience but addition to that skill-sets, what you get is one of the better hardcore albums of the year, and it almost a shame that they kept their guitar thrashing energy merely to an EP release. What you get is no wimpy winy vocals, no electronic hum drum nonsense; just pure simplicity that combined with experience equals something that works well for OVERCOME on this release.

Altars has released a new single, the title track from their upcoming 2013 full length, Something More. Which will be the name of their new album coming in May on Facedown Records. Check the lyric video for Something More below.
The band has plunged head-long into their new project, and their convictions are plain: “We grow up in a society that promotes conformity. An American culture that is paid to keep the majority of its inhabitants ignorant.”
Altars’ mission statement has never been more clear than with the release of Something More. The band states “There is Something More that lies beyond the blackened scope of our current vision. Beyond greed, unjustified power, ignorance, and all other evils, we believe that there is Something More. This is what we seek.” Continue reading »
