Black Metal Box


For my first post i'm going to introduce a metal/metalcore band from Phoenix, Arizona called Black Metal Box. They have one self-titled album released in 2009 on Minds Eye Studio.  With heavy guitar riffs, dark undertones, and a gut wrenching scream this band can get anyone on there feet, headbanging. There riffs are crisp and heavy, there bass lines are strong, and the drum work is top notch. While they tend to focus toward mid-tempo guitar they bring it together with strong solos. The drummers double-kick work is superb making even the mid-tempo seem heavier than it actually is. As for the vocals, they mix their screams and growls with clean vocals almost seamlessly but the lyrics can be mediocre at best. Songs like "Sorry To Tell You" and "Consumed" are a good example of their scream/clean vocal mesh while "Fallen" and "Nobody Knows" focus more on clean vocal, easily showing how versatile they are. Each and every song hits you hard, knocks you back, kicks you while your down.

Currently unsigned. Let's get them out there.
