This is a review of a split album between Illinois's Death On Fire and Corpse Paint And Dayglo which will be self released in October and we will start off the review with Death on Fire a band that plays a melodic mixture of death and thrash metal.
Their side of the split starts out with a very fast sound along with a great amount of blast beats while the vocals are a mixture of death metal growls and screams along with the solos and leads being done in a very melodic style and the songs also bring in a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts.
A great amount of melody can also be heard in the guitar riffing while all of t he musical instruments having a very powerful sound to them along with some elements of groove metal also being utilized at times and he also brings in Duran Duran, Prince, Inxs, and Tom Petty covers as well as adding in a brief use of piano's, spoken word parts, synths and clean playing, the production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover real life themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Death On Fire and if you are a fan of melodic death and thrash metal, you should check out their side of the split. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Hope" and "You Got Lucky".
Next up is Corpse Paint And Dayglo a band that plays a blackened form of new wave.
Their side of the split starts out with a cover of Immortal's "tyrants" which also brings melodic guitar leads onto the recording along with all of the musical instruments having a very powerful sound to them while also mixing in elements of synth pop and goth rock style vocals and the song sounds nothing like the original.
They also bring in a new wave version of Darkthrone's "Transylvanian Hunger" before closing their side of the split with an original song along with the solos and leads being done in a very melodic style, the production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover darkness and nature themes.
In my opinion Corpse Paint And Dayglo are a very great sounding blackened new wave band and if you are looking for something very original, you should check out their side of the split. RECOMMENDED TRACK "Transylvanian Hunger".
In conclusion I feel this is a very great sounding split and if you are a fan of melodic death, black metal and new wave, you should check out this album. 8 out of 10.
