QUICKIE REVIEW OF AN UNSIGNED BAND: CREATOR DESTROYER

My focus today is going to be on Creator Destroyer, a self-proclaimed “progressive death metal” band from Florida. Now, there might not be anything wrong with that description, except that the band doesn’t have a single progressive element to their music. Their EP, Unintelligent Design, is an entirely straightforward deathcore album, complete with Job For a Cowboy-esque vocals (midrange and layered a lot) and tons of breakdowns. There is a noticeable Born of Osiris influence; guitarist Nick Capp uses a LOT of those odd-timed chugging riffs that follow no noticeable pattern.

All in all, Creator Destroyer like your pretty generic deathcore band. The constant breakdowns really piss me off and the guitar riffs are almost as simple as Whitechapel’s. The drumming is boring and mechanical, and the vocals sound like Oceano. I hate Oceano.

Also, look at this picture of the band:

Now, I have dreadlocks myself. But this is fucking retarded. Unintelligent Design is right.
