Music Banter - View Single Post - Trollheart Listens to Every Album on Wiki's List for 2017

Trollheart · 09-27-2017, 05:51 PM

Album title: Palisades
Artist: Palisades
Genre: Post Hardcore
Nationality: American
Release date: January 20
Position in Discography: Third
Fear Factor: Moderate
Familiar with this artist? No
Familiar with the genre or subgenre? Not really. A little. I get by.
Oh here we go again! Another band who couldn't think of a name for their new album and decided to self-title it. I'll never understand that thinking. Anyway, Post Hardcore and I have had a tumultuous, seldom successful relationship and I can't really remember if I've yet heard a PH band I like. The screaming/roaring is a bit offputting in anything other than metal, and then it changes to an almost emo-like vocal, then back to growling. Odd. Yeah, I dunno. It's okay I guess, but maybe it's just me, but this is kind of all blending together. I'm sure fans of post hardcore will love it, but it's not really for me, not at the moment anyway. Maybe it needs a few more listens. It won't be getting them, not here anyway.

Check out more from this artist? I wouldn't be in a hurry
Check out more from this genre or subgenre? I won't give up on it just yet
