WELCOME TO MUTINY WITHIN… LET THE HYPE BEGIN

within mutiny

Get ready to start hearing a lot about Mutiny Within (formerly Mutiny), Roadrunner’s latest young gun signee. I had the pleasure of seeing this band perform in front of about 12 people at New York’s tiny Lit Lounge last year and was really fucking impressed that dudes so young had such impressive chops and brought such a powerful show.

I’m reasonably certain about half the band’s lineup has since changed, but judging from some demos on the band’s MySpace page their musical composition hasn’t. Think the Euro-bombast of Children of Bodom, Americanized. It’s epic, it’s got keyboards, and it’s cheesy as fuck, but it’s really well done. It’s exactly the kind of metal that Roadrunner specializes in completely knocking out of the park. Remember the massive hype when Trivium broke with “Pull Harder on the Strings of Your Martyr”? You’ll soon be hearing about Within Mutiny on that kind of level; I gar-aun-tee.

The band heads into the studio this winter to record their RR debut with Ascendancy‘s twisted genius knob-twiddler Jason Suecof. Expect an early-mid ’09 release.

    fuck yes

  • CarlosRamirez

    Jason Suecof is one of the worst producers in metal today! He makes everything sound so lifeless.

    Yes, Terry Date’s productions don’t exactly sound “warm” or “live” by any stretch but when he was the flavor-of-the-moment, his output was twenty times better than Suecof’s.

    Are you sure its within mutiny? It says mutiny within on the picture, and thats their myspace url..

  • hype machine

    Within Mutiny isn’t bad…but you guys should REALLY check out Mutiny Within

  • WetBiscut

    Do you guys suppose that the lead singer (guessing, here) looks really angry because the marketing folks wouldn’t let him wear a black t-shirt like the rest of his friends?

  • Ross

    Haha, you guys are fucking morons. It’s bad enough that you have to cover generic bands on a shit label like Roadrunner, but you can’t even get the name right.

    They need a new logo. Everybody and their grandmother has used that font for EVERYTHING. Every band thinks their the most bad ass metal band out there when they use the “Bleeding Cowboys” font

    I used to work for Martha Stewart, you know a font’s bad when they start using it in their scrapbooking line.

    No I’m serious.

  • Gibbo

    They’re only young, give them a chance.

    Personally, I think they’re pretty good, especially for their fucking age like.

  • Gibbo

    Oh, and the singer reminds me of the guy from Sonata Arctica when he actually sings.

  • CarlosRamirez

    I don’t believe in giving a band a “chance” because they are young.

  • totallynotgay

    I’m not in to dudes, but that is the fucking ugliest band ever.

    The guy in white looks semi-retarded, the guy on the right with the beard looks like he’s standing there with his two kids, the guy on the far left is an albino and next to him looks like he needs help tying his shoes.

    Well, the music’s not THAT bad…but it’s also not much more than a few steps up from bullet for my valentine so…

    EMO-METAL BE GONE!

    (but, shit…that dude in the white shirt stole my pants…how embarrassing.)

  • meddal723

    hey “totally not gay”…. (that means you’re gay btw if your actual name is you defending yourself saying that you’re not) i bet you’re not much of a looker either. Go upstairs and out of your mom’s basement i bet she’ll even tell you you’re ugly as shit.

  • vacillator

    if youve known this band when they were called Mutiny, you would realize that they were ten times better, with a more black/power metal approach instead of this mainstream bullshit. they basically changed their entire sound to get signed, what a shame all of their old songs are going to be thrown away

  • jin

    DAMN IT these guys wanted me to send them a recording before they were mutiny within …….DAMN

  • mark

    this site is so funny people pick at the most random things like font and stuff.. always entertaining watching people complain online
