They are a grindcore band from Canada.

The Grind approach found on the debut has been kicked to the curb this time around, as DESPISED ICON has adopted a more Death/Core approach to their grind, which makes for an incredibly aggressive but still highly infectious sound. Anyone who was worried about lineup changes will be happy to know that DESPISED ICON is still a highly cohesive unit and Alex’s change from Drums to Vocals just might be one of the best things that happened to the band; his vocal play offs with Steve are phenomenal.

Picking a standout track for the album is almost impossible, as there is barely a second of wasted material on the album, but if push came to shove, then “Silver Plated Advocate” and “Retina” would fit the bill. The first for the fantastic, guitar riff that comes in at the 0:05 mark and the other just because it flat out slays. But you really can’t go wrong with anything here.

If you’re debating buying this but a little short on money, let me just say you can’t afford not to own this release. Hails to the new wave. (Online June 6, 2005)

Apparently, what I listen to isn't even metal - it's just Satanic. If that's the case, I'm proud to be a Satanist.

**BigZeke** · 10-04-2005, 07:12 AM

Apparantly, the music I (we) listen to makes me want to kill myself. Odd, because after listening to a rousing round of "brootal def" I just want to kill other people

Ihateeveryone · 10-04-2005, 08:18 AM

What a bunch of crap. I've heard that hundreds of times too. Truth is, I don't even need music to make me want to kill people.

Pj-Macx · 10-04-2005, 10:00 AM

I agree... I dont need hard metal music.. just drive on a California freeway at about 5 pm... that is enough to make you want to kill people...

Exactly.

I want to kill after listening to some really soft stuff... I can barely imagine how I'd feel after a couple of death metal songs. :evil:

You're like one of those serial killers who listens to classical music before/after/during his kills

A good friend of mine suggested "Swept Away" as a song for that activity.

did you even listen to the band? their first album was grind, but everything released after that has been brutal death. anyways i think their good and they remind of man must die with a little more yelling.

oh and btw, im not one of those people who think korn or slipknot is metal.

Well, I'm very critical when it comes to metal. If anything reviewed by anyone respectable is deemed -core, then it tends to either suck or come very close unless you have very specific tastes that they match.
