Review:
A long time ago, Awakening The Revenant announced the release of a first record, which finally came out in late December. The Procreated offers the broadest range of different kinds, to play Deathcore in just 5 Tracks (excluding the Intro). Groundbreaking Breakdowns, dramatic ones and a lot of blast beats at it's finest, this is what your first impressions would look like. But actually behind these deadly walls is a lot more then guessed and considered as "generic Deathcore". A very special and positive feature, which is also pretty rare to find within this kind of music, are the clean sung vocals in the songs "The Great Deceiver" and "Conqueror".
The sound for a first release is pretty solid. The quality in the tone of the guitars sounds pretty massive.
Coming to the intense moments. They're present! In masses.
From the scream in the beginning of "This City Screams War", to the end of the EP.
Indeed, these guys do more then Deathcore, there's a definite prove of classical Moshriffing, that leans to Hardcore bands such as The Acacia Strain, Betrayal and so on. Well layered riffage all in all.
I would highly suggest, checking this band out, also if you aren't into Deathcore at all, or even hate it.
There is no Suicide Silence or other shit influence to hear.
Awakening The Revenant offer a pretty original and steadfast sound!
Period.
