User Album Review
Six explodes into first single/video “Stone,” where sing-along worthy, wholly infectious choruses weave through massive multi-layered sonics that are a proper approach to Metalcore; infusing heavy Hardcore elements into the slaughtering sound profile. In a world where “Metalcore” has come to mean so very little, For the Fallen Dreams have seemingly rescued the scene with just one track! Thank the heavens!
Beautiful synths worthy of the latest Bring Me The Horizon offering lead into the pummeling stomp of “The Undertow,” a track that shares some sonic echoes with The Word Alive’s “Trapped.” (Which, you know, cannot possibly be a bad thing!) Meanwhile, the catchy sing-along of “Unstoppable” is motivational Metal at its finest; deliciously clean choruses alongside bang-along verses that urge listeners to get up again and be indestructible.
Unlike many of 2018’s Metalcore roster – who heavily embrace Metal but have little inkling of anything Hardcore – For the Fallen Dreams embrace the Hardcore and inject some melodic Metal into that hodge-podge, creating a proper Metalcore offering that is deliciously exciting in its homage to the early 2000s heyday of the ‘Core. This, in fact, makes For the Fallen Dreams a kind of amalgamation that possesses the forthright motivation of Hardcore superstars like Stick To Your Guns, the soaring atmospherics of Sempiternal-era Bring Me The Horizon, the balls of early Eighteen Visions, and the modern day panache of labelmates like The Word Alive. Whatever that all means, it equals one truly killer, blisteringly heavy sound that you should not miss! For these reasons, CrypticRock give For the Fallen Dreams’ Six 4.5 of 5 stars.
