What happens when current and former members of Fit For An Autopsy, The Dillinger Escape Plan, Misery Signals, Blacklisted and Counterparts collide? A masterclass in modern metallic hardcore. Splinters From an Ever-Changing Face revels in screeching, slashing guitars (“Covet Not”), face-pounding pit slams (“Pariah”) and snarling, sample-laden grinds (“Hesitation Wounds”), while guest shots from Pete Morcey of 100 Demons (on “Absence”) and Tanner Merritt of O’Brother (on “Sands of Sleep”) bring vocal nuance to the pandemonium.
