That's it. Finally, a solid metalcore and not from the United States, how happy I am, that finally I can listen to previously unknown representatives of the scene. In addition to other, more or less well-known colleagues from their country, THE END OF ALL REASON presents at least fresh and very brutal.

What has been concluded on Fragmentedis a very mature and fresh approach to the fairly rigid as metalcore or deathcore genre. In fact, THE END OF ALL REASON creativity balances between these two genres, at the same time not giving classified. However, in order to make it's music much more interesting they add an element called progression, which goes directly awesome. I havent expected that that those who clearly inspire the core scene can play own music so eloquently, fine and then at the same time create a consistent, but still soaked by brutality, wall of sonic sound. In some parts THE END OF ALL REASON reminds me melodic death metal, or a progressive band, In any event, I include it as a plus.

Key word to describe THE END OF ALL REASON is the melody. The melody that goes hand in hand with the impact, with harmony, space, creating a coherent monolith. This is a monolith epka entitledFragmented, where the modern meets some oldschool, something good and tested in metal in general. This is not only intensive fast play with brutal amazing blast beats, or tons of guitar shredding. On the contrary, what attracts attention for a long time, is by far the high concentration of good riffs, melodic passages and various tempo changes. Despite the many changes of mood and pace, the material contained onFragmented, falls consistently over the word and it is seen as the perfect prelude to the first official full lenght album.

I especially like the rhythms of THE END OF ALL REASON drummer Jonas Sanders, who often gives an intensive drumming and the characteristic for deathcore impact. For all the happiness this EP is not only full of occur quickly and puzzled tempo. THE END OF ALL REASON members know when the release a powerful breakdown and overwhelm the listener. Album contains many interesting rhythmic motifs, and to be honest with you, the entire rhythm section does not allow you to forget about them for a single moment. Most of the production of metalcore albums not have that characteristic low, which generates a pulse of the bass. For a variety Belgians care about this important detail.

However, what makes me into astonishment, are the plastic fantastic and almost juggle moods. Moments in which there are clear progressively closer to being directly awesome playing and refresh the listener. Perfect parties which are aimed at treatment of the music, adding its subtle flavor. The fans of THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER, AT THE GATES, WINDS OF PLAGUE or simply KILLSWITCH ENGAGE should be completely satisfied. I feel that i will have a nice relationship with those guys. Hah, not gay though, but still emotinal and focused on music.

Hope you will buy this shit!
