As I Lay Dying |
|
As I Lay Dying is one of many, many bands to throw their hat into the
Swedish-influenced metal-hardcore ring in the early 2000s. Frail Words
Collapse is a solid example of its genre, carrying the stereotypical
hallmarks of harmonized dual-guitar riffing (often reminiscent of In Flames or
Iron Maiden), heavy double-bass drumming, and roaring vocals that occasionally
slip into a melodic, clean-voiced emo style. There are also a few more
dissonant, "technical" passages that nod toward Converge and their ilk. While
not an obvious clone of any other specific band, As I Lay Dying doesn't really
add anything new to the mix from a musical standpoint. Then again, the songs
here are solid enough and well executed, and the production is adequate (if a
little too clean and digital sounding). This album will appeal mostly to
devoted fans of the genre who are looking for another slight variation on the
In Flames-influenced metal-hardcore style. - William York, All Music
