July Top Five ( Vote!)
Episode 7.50 (The Unsigned Countdown)
Written by Jason Roeseke
Lets talk tracks. Our first Top contender is a brutal Swedish/ Finish combo known to the world as @machineryofficial. The Serpent was the first song created by this group, but you wouldn't know that by listening. The talent is distributed evenly and with an emphasis on guitar and intense vocals. The care taken in the mixing process as well as great bass, and realistic drums all blends together really well. You can learn more about this band by watching our Interview with Karl Johan Vidner of Machinery. Moving on we feature @Elision_of _Animus with their song within a song Penumbra. With an deep intense movie score as the back drop. This song flows to places you would never expect. From full on metalcore to an ambient sounding masterpiece. While this song is part of a concept of a larger story line. It stands well on it's own as well. You can discover more about Portugal's sons by checking out our Interview with Elision of Animus. I think I should thank both of the last bands for getting up at 3 and 4 in the morning to record those great interviews. Next we have a Ohio based group that kicked it up a notch by joining us in our first and soon to be historical Interview Fan & Band chat. @BoyMeetsWorldband brings us the punky poppy perfection that is Rest of our Days. If there is any proof that continuity is important to the success of a band . These three brothers and two best friends are out to prove that they've got what it takes. A great group of guys that can purley play and love the experience of playing live . Check them out if you're in their area.
Finally we reach the point of battle. That moment that divides second place from First. That moment when one band realizes the dream of winning the month of July and prepares them selves for a November finale, while the other band does not. So it is very important to each of these next two bands the you take a minute to listen, and then to vote for your favorite.

Or really go big vote, and Tag @Jarcodes on a sweet pic of your favorite of this Top Two at Instagram. The first countdowner set to bleed you of your vote is the inventors of the Vienna Moshcore sound. @Rootlessvmc is proud to be "a unique mix of Hardcore, Thrash, and Death Metal combined in one emotionally charged package". Thats exactly what Pussy Whipped is. This raw sound intense and lethal vocals combined with a perfectly structured song is totally everything you could want in a song. Then to set the story within the lyrics just put it over the top and into that class of music known as classic. Then before you think you earballs have been completely kicked comes the next band up for your vote. @dimitri-pourille. Increased Distortion is a very limited band name for the sound that they've created in the epic that is In The Middle Of Nowhere. A journey of soundscapes awaits you in this gem of a track. Hard hitting tempos and beats fill the space. While vocals rip you to pieces. Just when you think you know what this song is however. It changes pace and slows down to an almost tranquil atmosphere, only to lull you in si that it can come back even harder heavier and more intense then you could think was humanly possible.
