The Southern California-based quintet, Suicide Silence, specialize in the extreme metal subgenre known as deathcore. Combining the rapid-fire brutality of extreme death metal with the slower, mosh-pit breakdowns of metalcore, the band continue to fashion some of the most violent, no-holds-barred music the genre has seen on its sophomore album, NO TIME TO BLEED. A finely honed assault composed of ultra-fast blast beats and jarring tempo changes, front man Mitch Lucker frequently trades off between vocal extremes from demonic death growls to raspy, high-register screams, matching in intensity the caustic sensory overload provided by his bandmates. While the album's feral attack may be an acquired taste for some of genre's more melodically inclined fans, NO TIME TO BLEED is nevertheless admirable for its sheer single-mindedness of purpose.
