Fiercely beautiful, cinematic and empowering modern metal, with a clear sense of emotional purpose – Amerakin Overdose crack the code with this release, immersing listeners in the rightful depth and detail of The Gray.
Presenting by way of a distinct and powerful soundscape, backed by Corey Taylor-style vocals both delicate and intense accordingly, The Gray is a story and song that soulfully and poetically screams out for connection and clarity.
The melody and softness of the frontline is gifted a sheer sense of drama and darkness by the accompanying roar of additional vocals, and the cascading layers of the arrangement prove both musically impressive and snappy in terms of hitting with recognisable impact.
From the album Artificial Infections, this is a high-energy yet emotionally engaging song, from a Portland-based act with a clear focus on both vibe and artistic intention united. The Gray is alluring, all-consuming, and brilliantly impressive.
