Pittsburgh fivesome Demise Of Eros certainly know their metalcore. Dual guitar harmonies, kick drums and rasping vocals are here in abundance, so if you enjoy gorging on Trivium and Bullet For My Valentine then you’re in for a feast. But for the less metalcore-obsessed, it’s the genre-hopping surprises that taste the sweetest. ‘Engraved On My Palms’ has shifting proggy rhythms, ‘Reach For The Sky, Punk’ drops into deep death growls before reaching an Opeth-style zenith, and end track ‘Of Ages Past’ incorporates some gothic piano work. Demise Of Eros also have a soft side, as evidenced by the smatterings of acoustic and Spanish guitar. If music be the food of love, Demise of Eros will soon be fighting off attention.
