Sunday: Bloodshot Dawn - Smoke and Mirrors

     I've written about British melodic death metal band Bloodshot Dawn and their upcoming album Demons before, but now that the band has released a video for a track from Demons I can point you in the direction of the very latest in well done, heavy-ass melodeath.

     "Smoke and Mirrors" checks all the right boxes and covers all the right bases for this kind of music: lots of good, meaty riffs; tight drumming; evil-sounding leads; good growls at both the lower and higher ends of the scream spectrum; and all of it done fast and with pummeling relentlessness.

     If this sounds like something you'd jam, or if you're at all into this little corner of the metal world (melodeath with some modern thrash), I highly doubt you'll be disappointed with Bloodshot Dawn, Demons, and "Smoke and Mirrors". Click the link above, and then consider how great these guys are going to be in a couple of albums if Demons is just their sophomore effort.
