Adorned Graves - Fightgrinder video on youtube

Hi there,

as promised some time ago I´ll send you some news and updates for Adorned Graves.


There is something going on in the Graves camp in 2016 and 



the first I want to let you know for today is that we now have a lyric video for "Fightgrinder" on youtube:



enjoy!

Cailen

Sweet!  I pretty regularly crank that EP and really enjoy it.  I'm stoked to hear more from you guys!

Yeah, that EP is one of my favorite releases from Christians the past few years.  Shows a lot of promise!

Solid stuff! I'm not sold on the vocal style, but the riffing is awesome

I do have to say I think you should change your name before you're stuck with it, though.  It's just not memorable.  Every time I hear it, I have to think for a second, "wait, is that the EP I like a lot?"  Because it's just a forgettable name.  Gravegrinder would be much better! (you can have that, free of charge )

Really?  Man, I love the vocals.  Very unique and varied in today's day and age where everyone sounds exactly the same.  It's a throwback to the late 80s/early 90s when there was a variety of metal and hardcore shouting styles that you could actually understand.

Well I wasn't born then and got into metal with more modern stuff (Demon Hunter, Becoming the Archetype) haha. I've been getting into some older stuff, but I still haven't warmed up to the thrash/hardcore shout (that's what I call it in my mind anyhow). I like Slayer, but am having a harder time with this and DJ era Living Sacrifice... The phrasing is quite good here which helps.

I'm with Honcho on this one.  Something I particularly like about this EP is how varied the vocals are.  They range from thrashy shouts to deathy growls to classic metal wails and beyond - and they're all done very well!

Thanks a lot!

@strangerhoncho: Gravegrinder is great! We will think about it

As we wrote the song Fightgrinder we listened a lot to Megadeth and we thought: Our new song is such a typical shredding metal song. We need  typical metal lyrics for that.

Yeah, we need: "Fight" "Grind" and "Kill" "War" "Evil" etc...
and we named because of that the song "Fight-Grinder"

According to the vocals: It is true: We are old school and like the vocalstyle of
the 80ies and early 90ies. I understand if some may not be into this style of singing because I have the same problem with "modern" screams in Metalcore, Nu Metal or Black Metal.

I grew up with bands like Maiden, Priest, Helloween, Metallica, Slayer,
Deliverance, Tourniquet,
The Crucified, Believer, and of course Vengeance Rising or Martyr / Betrayal.
These kind of vocals I still like the most.

This rules!
