Metalcore is getting bigger by the minute, and England seems to be its current breeding ground. Bury Tomorrow have clearly picked up a few tricks from their fellow countrymen Bring Me The Horizon, including a post apocalyptic aesthetic. In their case, it is worn with a very obvious wink. Beneath the scorched earth concept, the real message is one of inclusivity and honesty, which is hard to argue with.
But let’s not forget the core mission of any metalcore band. To fuck shit up. And fuck shit up they do. I am fairly sure a new crowd surfing record was set somewhere around the thirty second body launched into the air. By the time "Black Flame" hit, the room had turned into a nonstop conveyor belt of flying humans.
If chaos was the goal, Bury Tomorrow nailed it. To an inverted cross, of course.
