Final
Surrender
Metallic,
lacerating riffs blend with slamming, crushing heaviness. The
listener’s ears are assaulted by incessant, pulverizing shredding
and dissonant brutality until out of nowhere comes a whitewash of
melody; a catchy, cleansing chorus amongst the chaos. This isn’t
some bizarre, Bollywood-inspired dream thrust upon the listener’s
subconscious, but rather the music of Bangalore, India’s Final
Surrender. Using a unique and magnificent blend of
hard
hitting and abrasive metalcore and progressive, dynamic native
influences, Final Surrender break new and unchurned ground with every
song they fashion from their
debut
release, The Expanse to their upcoming faith-filled juggernaut,
Nothing But Void.
Forming
in the blistering cold Winter of 2010, Final Surrender is the
collective effort of five young, yet extremely talented musicians on
a journey to push the envelope of progressive
metalcore.
Upon their formation, the band released two independent E.P.s, toured
their native homeland extensively, and developed a rabid, loyal
fanbase that reaches beyond India’s borders. The result of the
band’s hard work and dedication led them to inking a deal with
Indiana’s Rottweiler Records. After their 2012 signing, Final
Surrender announced they would be entering the studio with former
Evanescence drummer, Rocky Gray to record their second full-length
release, Empty Graves.
Influenced
from everything by metalcore giants August Burns Red to prolific
progressive masters Meshuggah, Final Surrender are a dynamic blend of
gut busting heaviness and razor-sharp metallic riffing. Harsh,
grating vocals soar overtop of labyrinthine, winding riffing and
break-neck speed drumming, leaving the listener in nothing but the
purest state of shock and awe. What’s just as awe-inspiring is the
band’s commitment to God and spreading love and forgiveness. This
is evident in their brand new single “Fallen Identities.”
releasing March 22nd, 2019.
