Six Reasons To Kill/The Architects of Perfection/Massacre Records/2011 CD Review


  Six Reasons To Kill are a band from Germany that mixes brutal and melodic death metal with metalcore and this is a review of their 2011 album "The Architects Of Perfection" which was released by Massacre Records.

Drums range from mid paced to fast playing with some brutal blast beats being thrown in at times, while the bass playing has a very heavy and powerful sound, as for the keyboards which are only utilized briefly they bring a dark industrial edge to the music with some trip hop/ambient style sampling along with the occasional piano.

Rhythm guitars range from slow, mid paced to fast riffs that mix brutal death metal with metalcore and there is also a great amount of melodic riffing along with some thrash influences and on one song there is some soft playing, while the lead guitars have a very melodic tone with some solos, as for the acoustic guitars when they are used briefly, they use full chords to enhance the melodic parts of the music.

Vocals are a mixture of deep death metal growls and high pitched screams that have a black metal feel to them along with the occasional pig squeal  and clean singing vocals, while the lyrics cover Social Issues, Racism, War and Tolerance, as for the production it has a very heavy and professional feel to it with all of the musical instruments having a brutal sound.

In my opinion Six Reasons To Kill are a very good melodic/brutal/death metal/metalcore band hat is a lot heavier than most bands that play this style, and if you are a fan of this genre, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Welcome To Forever" "Perfection" "My Poison" and "Buried To The Sea". RECOMMENDED BUY.
