Veil of maya false idol download torrent

Yes, the bass is evident here, but it doesn't make it good for the record because it aids only to make the chugging boring repetitive guitar appear more blatant. That heavy clanging sound that the guitar and bass section provides is a fucking horrible course of action when you are already playing dry and tedious riffs. The drum section is pretty standard for metalcore and deathcore genre. It's the usual blast beats here-and-there rendering, pretty generic really.

It's as the same as the other hundreds of releases under this kind of genre, only that it doesn't seem terribly triggered and that there's a bit of a mix of tempos. There is no surprise on the vocal delivery here too. Veil of Maya's frontman is one of the most generic vocalists to ever come out of this genre.

The dude utilizes the same harsh scream in every part of the entire record with little to no difference. Plus his emoting whiny clean vocals just annoys me that much.

Listening to his clean vocals makes it really seem like you are listening to a brootal version of any post-hardcore songs executed by bands playing a mimicked track of power pop bands. After giving "False Idol" a spin, I can certainly conclude that this is an album that will unquestionably attract mainstream metal music fans and will work on trendy scene kids.

Having said that, I know that enthusiasts of true extreme music already understand how ugly and utterly negligible this offering is.

So I guess it's also about not tearing up your vocal cords when you're screaming -- I wanted to ask how it works with the dynamic between clean singing and screaming, switching back and forth on the fly.

Magyar : It's not difficult, but I think that's credited to having done it for over ten years; also, understanding what my body is doing and these sounds and textures and frequencies are actually created. It's not something that's difficult now; however, in the past, it was extremely difficult. It's hard to explain what that process of learning was like. But now, I'm broken into it, so I don't put much thought into it anymore.

Then I found you guys and was like, "holy shit! What is it about False Idol which might connect back to the The Common Man's Collapse days -- are there any threads of the late 's now in False Idol? Okubo : Definitely.

I wouldn't say the singles are the songs which were pushed toward the older fans. I'd say we put the two singles out for those who have never heard us before. There are a few other tracks too. The whole thing with every album is that we tried as hard as we could to make it sound completely different -- the same band, but we don't want to have the same song over and over again. I'm hoping that we can continue that with this album. Also, you mentioned the Internet hater thing -- the Internet is a wild place, and if you ever go to MetalSucks comments, you can see that very obviously.

I'm an older fan, but I still really dig False Idol. What's the draw for older fans who might be on the fence about, let's say, clean singing? Or on the fence about the way the band has evolved? What's the message? Okubo : Well, that's just too bad, you know? When it really comes down to it, when The Common Man's Collapse came out in , that sold 1, copies the first week, and nobody came to the shows or showed us any love at all.

Now everyone wants us to go backward in time to do that over again, when our band has only gotten better with every release. To me, the kids with the elite comments are a bunch of teenagers that live in their basement who went on the Internet and found out about us like a few weeks ago.

They're going to form an opinion and tell us what we need to be doing, when I've been here the entire time and know that none of those kids bought our album, none of them bought The Common Man's Collapse or [id] , none of them came to any of the shows.

What's really happening is what's in front of us, and the Internet is just the Internet. Do you guys have a favorite track from False Idol? Maybe one sticks out to you -- more fun to play on guitar, more fun to sing?

Maybe a track that listeners take a peek at with you specifically in mind? Magyar : I like "Graymail" a lot, I think that track is badass. It's a fun one. Okubo : I like that "Follow Me" song that I was talking about earlier -- the super death metal one. That's a super cool song too. For me, I still think -- and I usually try to avoid making the singles my favorite track, it feels like singles are usually the most broad tracks, they showcase as much as the album as they can -- nevertheless, "Overthrow.

Is that one of the first songs you guys put together for the album, or one of the two that you [Marc] brought to the table already? Okubo : I think that surprised everyone, it didn't turn out the way I expected it to turn out. My expectations were definitely a little lower for that song, so I was very surprised and quite happy. I think it was a good song to release as a single as well. Okubo : Sure, yeah. I thought it was the most similar to "Mikasa" on the album. Okubo : I really liked that one a lot, but I can see how it would be isolating for some of our fans.

That was actually the first song that Matt [ False Idol producer] wrote together. We actually met each other and wrote that song all within two hours. And after that, we were like, "yeah, we should probably keep working together.

So both of you [Marc and Matt] have found a synergy together in terms of writing? Do you feel like something clicks, like maybe you have a long-lost ancestor or something, connected somehow?

Okubo : I tend to form a close relationship with every producer we work with in the studio. They've all been super-talented guitar players, every single one of them. I like that since I'm the only guitar player in the band, and I like to work with other really good guitar players to bounce ideas back and forth. It makes me doubt myself a lot less -- if a riff sucks, having someone to say it so I can write a different one.

We've actually never had two guitar players on any album -- when we were just starting, we had two. But they weren't really able to keep up, we had to dumb down parts to make them easier to play, and it wasn't working out.

Around the time you guys were writing False Idol , what were your influences? What were you listening to during the writing period to fuel your artistic spirit? Okubo : For me, I was listening to a jazz pianist called Tigran Hamasyan , and then also a lot of rap music. Some electronic music as well, plus a little bit of pop. Magyar : I was so far off the metal spectrum. I listened to Yelawolf and Sam Hunt.

I guess on your [Lukas] end, any singers you can tie yourself back to in terms of influence? Magyar : There's definitely not one singer I can pinpoint.

You hit me with a good melody, and I'm hooked forever. It's kind of the way my brain works. They're on tour with Between the Buried and Me and came through Chicago -- it was really interesting talking to him about shifting from screaming to building in a lot of singing into his sound.

Do you guys see any reflections of yourselves in The Contortionist? Okubo : Oh yeah, he's amazing. Actually, before Brandon left the band and I was writing Matriarch , I called up Mike to do some of the singing parts for the album, and that's the way we were going to do it. We've actually known him since he joined the band [The Contortionist], and I think he's been an amazing addition that made that band better than ever. But yeah, we're friends, we've toured together in the past and I would definitely tour with him again.

Are you guys going to open up some of the new tracks live once the album is out? Okubo : Maybe we'll start playing "Doublespeak" again, we've only been playing "Overthrow" lately.

Cool, I guess we'll leave it to the album for listeners to get acclimated with the new work. Okubo : Yeah, we gotta see if people will like the album first, right? I remember we were on a week-long tour when "Mikasa" was put out, and we didn't even play that song.
