Congratulations As We Die, you are the one billionth visitor of the melodic metalcore bandwagon!

Is it me or am I really the only one that thinks the whole mixing-metalcore-with-melodeath-metal-is-super-duper-kewl thing is getting a bit old? I mean, come the fuck on, it has been done, like, countless times before. No really, enough already. If the only contribution to the scene is reminding me why metalcore-borrowing-influences-from-melodic-death-metal is a total waste of my time, well, get in line.

Apparently it's just me.

As We Die are the latest rookies to the scene. With their debut EP The Right Choices the band intends to make a compelling rampage... right after an army of Godzilla's already left the scene in complete death and destruction. The As We Die formula is just too genuine and unsophisticated to be impressive - let alone enjoyable. Here's the album in a nutshell: melodies that make me want to swallow my tongue, whiney clean vocals, a level of accessibility that is higher than the entire audience of a Bob Marley tribute concert, lyrics portraying teenage angst issues, and so forth.

Yada yada yada (the lack of effort works contagious).

When the spark is missing in a genre where there are more bands than the dudes from Manowar have hairs on their chest, your story ends rather quickly.

Since I - unlike some people - want my work to be worthwhile, I'll have you know that a dendrofiliac is someone who commits adultery with trees, and anatidaephobia is the fear that somewhere a duck is watching you. So yeah, at least you heard something new here. (Hiyooo!)
