User Album Review
The trademark sound comes from After The Burial’s semi-stable lineup over the last few albums. This is the second record since the tragic passing of guitarist Justin Lowe and is the first record solely helmed by fellow guitarist Trent Hafdahl, who is the mastermind behind all the magic in Evergreen. His chugs, riffs, melodies, and solos flow seamlessly, are memorable, and never fail to be just plain fun. As much as the guitar work is expectedly top-tier, the drums and bass are largely forgettable. The drums do a perfectly respectable job of maintaining the groove set by the guitar chugs with the antithetically-expected off-beats, ghost-notes, and syncopation, but never really leap out with any stellar moments. The bass is almost entirely lost in the mix, a thorn in many a “djent” band’s sides. With a tremendous emphasis on low-end seven/eight string registers, it is easy for the bass to get completely drowned out, and while earlier records have the bass stand out by playing at a higher octave, Evergreen could very easily be a bass-less record and is poorer for it. Vocalist Anthony Notarmaso is one of the most recognizable staples of the “Sumerian-core” microgenre, and his performances on Evergreen are equally recognizable, yet with zero innovation. Clearly, Evergreen is being carried by Hafdahl’s creativity and prowess.
In a world of increasingly overthought and bloated yet forgettable progressive “djent”, After The Burial prove why the are genre giants, and could not have picked a more aptly named record. Their signature sound truly is Evergreen. If you are someone who likes their metal to be pure headbanging, grooving, bopping experience, without pretentious subtleties, this record is definitely for you!.
