SINAI BEACH have erupted from the fertile grounds of Southern California
to take their rightful place amongst the modern extreme music movement‘s
luminaries, bringing with them a sonic brew that incorporates the best
of metal‘s past, present and future combined with a hardcore-scene bred
work ethic and an undeniably heartfelt spiritual conviction. No quarter
is asked, none is given. There are no apologies. Only brutality.
The band built their hard-won reputation through two years of
do-it-yourself touring - playing headlining shows in basements, clubs
and churches across North America and Europe - behind the harsh rumbling
of their cult debut, "When Breath Escapes."
"Immersed" is about to take the world by storm, bringing with it a
melodic but savage sensibility inspired by Pantera and Danzig on a
blueprint of Meshuggah and Slayer. This is Metalcore as its never been
done before: intense, provocative, and fully-realized.
Singer CJ Alderson‘s voice transitions smoothly from a fierce and savage
roar to a type of melodic croon that stands apart from today‘s more
emo-leaning cookie cutter clones and recalls instead the tremendous
power of Philip Anselmo and Glenn Danzig.
Alderson‘s lyrics are abrupt, forthright and uncompromising, sitting
atop the punchy and pulverizing twin-guitar attack of Logan Lambert and
Mike Risinger, whose riffs are complemented with rhythmic dexterity and
fluid musicianship by bassist Jeff Santo and drummer Mike Dunlap.
"Immersed" is the band‘s mission statement, delivered with complete
passion and encapsulated masterfully by renowned Metalcore producer Eric
Rachel, who has recorded Atreyu, Dillinger Escape Plan, God Forbid and
Zao at Trax East Studios in New Jersey.
Sinai Beach has already blazed a trail across North America and Europe
on tour with bands like Bleeding Through, Norma Jean and Throwdown. And
with this album, their first for powerhouse indie Victory Records, Sinai
Beach will no doubt soon find themselves in the upper echelons of the
modern Metalcore movement. |
