Dancing around the fine line between Alternative Rock / Post-Hardcore and the dreaded Metalcore, The Fall From Grace manages to deliver a multi-textured and well-crafted release with “The Colours of Change”. Hailing from Denmark, this three-piece crushes the competition with catchy and powerful tunes that will be stuck in your head for days to come. The album really opens with the second track titled “Static Conclusion”. Immediately you get that guitar tunning that tons of Post-Hardcore and some Metalcore bands use, but the band stays away from the clichés and carves their own path with incisive riffs and very diverse vocals. The vocals are quite solid, providing a mix of screams and clean leads that are far from your average (and annoying) Metalcore blabber. Showing their versatility with tracks like “Retribution Revolution”, “Charades & Apathy” and “Rule One”, the band sets themselves apart from the rest with precise song-writing skills and a wide variety of tempo changes. One of our favorite tracks of this release comes under the name of “Our Beloved Nights”, a very emotional and moody piece that puts the band on the level of artists like Underoath, Deftones, etc. As this album is coming to a close, we see the band expanding their sound with the experimental elements of “Dim The Lights” and wasting no time to go on full-offensive with “Funeral For An Enemy”. The most dramatic piece is saved to last with “Extrovert” (our favorite song), and if this is any indication of what is next to come for this band, we will pre-order that release right now. In general, “The Colours of Change” is far from your one-dimensional average Post-Hardcore/Metalcore release, the band has been at is craft for quite a while and that clearly shows on the solid song-writing and crisp production behind this release. |
