@@Maz-lk4ze As far as I know the vocalist had another project by the name xTexas Chainsawx years ago but ever since then havent heard anything from 'em.
There are 2 unreleased tracks floating around called Def, and Floodwater. I downloaded them when the guitarist posted them on a metal injection post reminding people of this EP.
I didn't see a single genre argument in the comments. I only looked for a second but still I'm proud of everyone for not fighting over which specific genre it is.
Y'all need to understand that the guitars in downtempo/down tuned style of playing is not really meant to have diverse riffs it's just heavy sounding chugs
Some of the most perfect, heaviest, and brutal out of the down tempo bands I've listened to. Love how bass heavy this is (I'm pretty sure I'm hearing a lot of bass guitar), makes it so much more heavier. And I love the vocalists screams, they're so raw and angry. It's fucking perfect. I've listened to this album on repeat countless times already in the last week or whenever I discovered this guys. I WANT MORE
very likely he's using a 7 string guitar, he has that running into a compressor possibly, then into an overdrive, then what sounds like a sonic stomp possibly to me, then through some other things like a possible volume pedal, into a high gain amp, but the gain is probably 6 or 7 out of 10, high volume, high treble somewhere around 7-8, bass low around 5-6 and mids are high around 7-8, then he most likely has an eq running through the affects chain. then theres in studio affects. or just simply a great processing unit with a 7 string (simple but digital way). the tone is very easy to achieve with the right stuff.
Dylan Daniels 8 string. I saw their video for mind trap and he's got it running into a pod HD500 then into a 5150. When you're tuned that low i guess it doesn't take much to ascend into a higher plane as the Chunklord.
Im a fan. This is the raw slamming deep chugging filth ive been looking through a fuck ton of videos for. Those lows make my peen tingle a little too .This band is fucking on point. So glad i came upon this video.
f1123581321345589144 Dude! I was thinking during the musics "I've heard it before, but where!?" sure" Black Tongue! And there were you, the second comment hhahaha they look a lot like BT, the vocal and the sound are really close.
Holy shit...I stumbled upon this YEARS ago, loved the shit out of it, then lost it and haven't been able to find it since because I couldn't remember the name of the band. Been humming it since. Then this morning YT recommends it to me and I just happen to click on it. FINALLY I have it back!
The last ten seconds of life is my favorite band. Rex is a strong second. After reading this comment I tried it out. I am astonished, and not in any way disappointed.
My soul was officially taken at 13:40 lol this is the nastiest breakdowns I've ever heard, it gave me chills looking into the album cover and listening to that part, good thing my brother showed me this band!
Loved the entire e.p. Vox were refreshing and original. It wasn't over complex, just heavy with a lot of groove and chunk. Loved the lyrics, drums as well. I'm just impressed all around. Hope to hear some new material soon, I'll be spreading the word for sure!
1. Strange, inaccessible worlds. Whole worlds of matter, energy, and life Exist right under our noses. Do you see them? Do you see them...? 2. They're reaching out to me. Telling me they could set me free. In exchange. For just one thing. Enticing me further within Promises of power I am yearning for sin. I let them in. Voices inside my head Telling me that they'll never leave Is this all inside my head, Or am I just losing it? Fighting inside, trying to find Something to hold them back. I am fighting for my life. You wanted to see a darker side of me. I'll start to dig my own fucking grave Just to get ahead on rotting away. With every passing day, I tell myself.. I tell myself I won't break But it's only getting worse.. It's only getting worse. With every passing day, I tell myself.. I tell myself I won't break. But its only getting worse.. It's only getting worse. My.. my innocence is dead.. My.. my innocence is dead.. 3. I can't begin to describe The way I feel inside Even with it Consuming the thoughts in my mind. I've learned to accept The things that are wrong, And give back to the world What it gave to me. I won't hide. Embracing it with every step I take. Staring him in.. In the face. In a strange way, I feel so free, I feel so fucking free. I accept. I accept my fate. They are always there In the back of my head. They're not leaving until I have Nothing left. This demon is taking control of me. They are always there In the back of my head. They're not leaving until I have Nothing left. This demon takes control of me. Fuck! Ugh... uhh!!! Ah, ha ha ha! Ive wanted too fucking long To get what I've earned. I'll accept this evil And take what's fucking mine. We are one. 4. I am living proof Evil hides behind the eyes. So sew them shut, Remove my tongue, I want to make sure there's no way out. No. Way. Out. I've been beating my head Until my thoughts regress. Hearing voices seeing Visions of the dead. Can't even sleep Without their faces haunting me. Plaguing my dreams, Somethings inside of me. Dead but alive, sent to suffer in time. I am burning from the inside out. I feel it Gripping my soul And he's not Letting go. Suffering is all That I see. (Incoherent whispering) Grabbing ahold, I will take complete control Clutching your fucking throat With last breaths grasped in my hands Consuming everything I will make you mine Consuming everything gives me It gives me peace of mind. With this evil inside I refuse to hide I am in control of the demons within. And when I've slipped Into the hell I've built for myself I'll take you with me. Face to fucking face You're not getting the best of me. You're in my head, And these are my thoughts, And I will use the to trap you in. (I forget the rest, good luck)
+Anthony Alexander I'm truly sorry to hear that you've parted ways with the band and I hope nothing but the best of luck for you and I hope the path you have taken leads to greater things
People talk shit about Texas all the time... Little do they know we have bands coming out left and right as we speak and this shit is a prime example. Texas is gonna end up being a music STATE. Not just known for Austin. Kublai from Sherman. Concepts out of Crosby. Myka, Relocate out of Dallas (NOT TO MENTION MEMPHIS MAY FIRE CAME OUT OF DALLAS) and the Houston scene is blowing up right now with all of these heavy ass bands. Keep to your "Oh you ride horses to school" stereotypes.. We will stick to the kick ass reality that is Texas. Rex stands for how heavy our scene is... These dudes are fucking amazing.
Ive heard about the Illinois scene man and i have just as muh respect for yall as well. Theres a new movement going on right now and new bands are coming up. Pretty crazy.. Were apart of this moevement. Feels cool though haha

I think it was a bad idea start looking for this guys after i hear the album in Spotify. Where they are? Who are they? Why this fucking album is so dope!?
Texas has the best scene right now, you got Rex, Darke Complex, Feign, Hollow Vessels, I Am, Unity, Kublai Khan. Doesn't get any better than that. PA blows ass and almost every band sucks
