Idk if I'd really call it a homage lol Brand of Sacrifice consists of the same exact lineup as The Afterimage so it's literally just The Afterimage but obviously heavier haha
@@christophernazario2375 My pleasure, mate. Love that they've retained the heaviness of the early afterimage stuff but he's kept the cleans going. Dude has an immense range.
Brand of Sacrifice was spawned from a love of Berserk and other bands like Shadow of Intent were made from a love of Halo. I see deathcore can be nerdy and it's great
Just discovered this band, and going to see them live next Saturday with Rings of Saturn, Traitors and Earth Enterprise. THEY'RE SICK! Can't wait to hear it live.
My house fell apart because of blastbeats «Devinity”. After “The Branded”, the earth erupted and I touched the core of the earth. It was bound to end in this way! Thank you for this album! Let me shake your God Hand
Rubberduck645 Yeah Beast In Black can’t handle this brutality. In my opinion that is a shitty band. Brand Of Sacrifice is more in the spirit of Berserk.
Found out about this band today because they were supporting Rings of Saturn on their current tour. Really solid live performance top tier vox. Great show tonight boyssss
Part of me feels like this is over produced like hell. but then I remember how good they actually sound live. Kill album. The new standard of deathcore.
Is there a special bundle with a Behelit ? This album just kick you in the mouth, pretty brutal, really catchy, awesome production, damn I need this album !
Breeze of fresh air. They tried something new but made it work + vocalist is seriously good. This and Shadow of Intent's new album is the best deathcore I've heard in a very long time
I saw these guys live and simultaneously discovered them earlier this year. I don't know much, if anything really about Berserk. The way I found out Brand Of Sacrifice was based on Berserk was through a picture of a boob tattoo that happened to be the Brand Of Sacrifice. I recognized the symbol, and went to the comments to discover people talking about Berserk, and not the band. Lol
Someone doesn't know what slamming deathcore means. Within Destruction is slamming deathcore. This is to over produced and synthetic to be considered even remotely slamming. Amazing album regardless. They actually sound good live.
I dont quite agree with that logic. Thats like saying Behemoth or Cradle of Filth aren't black metal just because it doesn't sound like it was recorded with a toaster like Mayhem does
Agreed but for their firstfull length album id say its meat and potatoes they went for the killshot with each track i remember feeling the same way about there ep it was so good i just wantes more from them!
Bought both of their albums when I heard the song eclipse. Epic brutiful. And the sick guitar parts remind me of Tony Danza tapdance extravaganca, another band of my favourite club of which 'brand of sacrifice' is now a member. Pls keep this shit coming but try not to rip a hole in the dimension by accident with the most astonishing music i heard in years. Much love from austria \m/-
The title track, is the heaviest,grooviest slamming thing I've heard in a while. And I'm fine with the minor production/mixing changes to "divinity" and "fortress". So happy I preordered. I hope I can make it to summer slaughter to see these guys
@@RiholmAdventures Nice! I agree for some albums, like Archspire's "Relentless Mutation", I guess it depends on the band. I actually got this God Hand CD today! I'll be jamming to it tonight.
Saw this album at the local mall today and said "hm that sounds a lot like berserk, wonder if it's a coincidence" It was not a coincidence. But it was pretty brutal.

Underrated comment
Dude, this is one of the most innovative albums to ever come out of this genre
Yeah for real
I present you with the 69th like for your brave words young man
My love for this album is like a truck.
Mac daddy lovin it?

That homage to The After Image is damn wonderful
Idk if I'd really call it a homage lol Brand of Sacrifice consists of the same exact lineup as The Afterimage so it's literally just The Afterimage but obviously heavier haha
@@malicioustactics6846 Just because they're the same members, doesn't mean they can't pay respect to their previous work; that's a homage ;)
@@malicioustactics6846 he gotcha there nigga!
when you said homage I thought you where talking about berserk not there previous work
Seriously one of the most interesting extreme blends of 2019
Guts would slay the God Hand and their Apostles while jamming this album.
Ay that's me lol
Guts hey man do you know that pigs fear death?
@@lifeinsurance4495 ;)
Someone please make an AMV
Brand Of Sacrifice has the song named After Image. This album is pure gold
That song on repeat makes for better Destiny 2 music than Destiny 2 music.
Agreed. Also made me quite sad. Would have loved one last afterimage album but they fucking slay as Brand of Sacrifice
@@christophernazario2375 Earthshatter is basically them doing The Afterimage with a different name.
@@TheForeverspiral DUDE holy fuck thats awesome. his cleans are as good as ever. Thanks for the recommend bro

See u in the pit in Paris 😀
Late update:
Their live performance was awesome 🔥. If you like their songs, you absolutely have to go see them live!!!

Berserk has spawned some pretty great metal bands, this one and Beast In Black
Looked up Beast in Black. All I can say is that is not what I was expecting when comparing them to this.
Warbell deserves an honorable mention.
@@h34d5h0tz666 just checked them out, sounds awesome!
@@MrRubberduck645 Beast in Black must be Black metal
Rubberduck645 Yeah Beast In Black can’t handle this brutality. In my opinion that is a shitty band. Brand Of Sacrifice is more in the spirit of Berserk.
Definitely the best band to hit the scene this year!
I think Signs is going to swallow them whole tho..
@@noisepollution6761 I'll give you that, they'll give Brand of Sacrifice a run for their money.
What we need is compulsory trolling and all females get into it because insane metal is fasho and the only way to cope with life today
The new vulvodynia is dope too
I reckon it's needed the mid tones make it more mainstream sounding I can't wait for the artwork
Found out about this band today because they were supporting Rings of Saturn on their current tour. Really solid live performance top tier vox. Great show tonight boyssss
Shadow of intent... now this ... I live for Deathcore
Shadow of Intent fucking slaps
I don’t like SOI I think this is better
I dont think this is deathcore

Yeah your gonna wanna subscribe
this album is so heavy it makes me genuinely feel happy.
It's Christmas morning, 5am, and this is the motivation I needed to lift some heavy ass weights when I could be sleeping.
Listens for 30 seconds and... I'm sold.
This album immediately became my most favorite piece of deathcore ever. Thank you BoS.
GRIFFFFFFIIIIIIIITTTTHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Part of me feels like this is over produced like hell. but then I remember how good they actually sound live.
Kill album. The new standard of deathcore.
Dat Boi JRock I like that you said that. I feel that these guys with Shrine of Malice and a few others have set a new standard for Deathcore.
I'll be the judge of that
no HUMANITYS LAST BREATH IS THE BEST "DEATHCORE" BAND GOING(i hate the word deathcore)
@@detestor420 They have been crushing the competition for years. Favorite band.
@@Shiznoz222 who ?
Loving the blackend, slam and thall elements holy shit this is the best mixture of genres ive ever heard
This band needs way more attention
24:58 that part is so brutal with the creepy melody in background
Is there a special bundle with a Behelit ? This album just kick you in the mouth, pretty brutal, really catchy, awesome production, damn I need this album !
summer slaughter is going to give me a heart attack
are theyy playing ?
@@vincentthorn3498 ye
Not if the crowd killers get to you first
Dude I'm legit scared 😂
Still going tho
I need to know why this makes me feel at peace lol
Because it reminds you that everyone around you is living in delusion and that rage is better than submission.
I havnt listend to this good of an album in long time, STAY BRUTAL
Can't get enough of "Fortress"
fresh, new, SUPREME production. Love this album.

Cant wait to get home from vacation and buy this bad boy sooo heavy!
00:48 in and hit like damn this band is heavy as hell
After Image was my favorite, sounded like the theme to Griffith's utopia, something that would play as he overlooked his kingdom.
🤩 another beautiful album and album cover
The new record is awesome. Made a fan out of me in a nanosecond 🤘
Absolutely love this genre of music. Amazing. Simply amazing.
There is SO much good deathcore out there it is just incredible.
We are so lucky.
The album art is beautiful.
Such a sick sound! More more more!
my grandmother is on her deathbed. tonight is her last night. i said my final goodbye and after image is what i need.
My dad died a day before this dropped. Said my final goodbyes then, so I feel you. We'll get through this.

Divinity

The Branded
After Image
Claw Marks
Beast of Darkness
God Hand
I can't believe they played pop metal before... Bands nowadays change and sell themselves out - not this band. Luv their new sound! This slays so much
Lol pop metal, just cause Kyle can sing doesn't make it poppy. It was amazing prog metalcore
@@christophernazario2375 pop metal isn't something bad ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I like how this record ended with an epic breakdown.
Bersek has made some pretty good metal bends this one and best in black r 2 examples
Punchiest drums of the year award
In some month their gonna be the kings of Slamming Deathcore
They certainly just earned my vote for the title. This is insanely good.
Someone doesn't know what slamming deathcore means. Within Destruction is slamming deathcore. This is to over produced and synthetic to be considered even remotely slamming.
Amazing album regardless. They actually sound good live.
I dont quite agree with that logic. Thats like saying Behemoth or Cradle of Filth aren't black metal just because it doesn't sound like it was recorded with a toaster like Mayhem does
@@zombne uhm,cradle definatelly are not black metal and although behemoth was a black metal act once,they now play blackened death
Okay yeah Cradle not the best example I'll substitute Dimmu Borgir then. Again point is production quality does not dictate a bands genre
This album is so SICK!!!!
This reminds me of the first time I heard Whitechapel.
You are right.
What a discovery, u guys are damn kickass musicians🤘
Never heard of these guys before. This shit is 10/10
Slammin! Glad I found you guys and Saw you on the Summer Slaughter tour! (Iowa)
After Image is now one of my favorite interludes
That album name. These songs. Pure fucking YES.
Easily becoming my favorite slam fused deathcore band.
*Griffith has left the chat*
Gantris femto has entered the chat
Really good album! Sounds incredible.
Agreed but for their firstfull length album id say its meat and potatoes they went for the killshot with each track i remember feeling the same way about there ep it was so good i just wantes more from them!
Berserk fans , i love it
Yick, disgustingly heavy. Very nice.
Bought both of their albums when I heard the song eclipse. Epic brutiful.

That's funny the first one I heard was eclipse when my buddy showed it to me
@@grantrobison6132 a friend indeed! I really love that track. It's like a storm Rolling away over your head.
Amazing album! Lit af 🔥
gotDAYUM that breakdown at 22:20 made me fight a nun and dropkick a baby
At the same time?
I SUMMON UP THE POWA OF THE GOOOOOOD HAAAAAND
The end of Divinity is just unreal.
It sounds as if Josh Travis from TTDTE played for a slam band. Beautiful
Thought the same thing
The slam gods have truly blessed us!!
Loony Bin Animations This ain’t slam though.
It’s a great deathcore though not slam I really don’t hear any slammy parts
Wow one of the best albums this year for sure
The title track, is the heaviest,grooviest slamming thing I've heard in a while. And I'm fine with the minor production/mixing changes to "divinity" and "fortress". So happy I preordered. I hope I can make it to summer slaughter to see these guys
This is so much better than so many things...wow
Finally a band that is good for the soul. 🤘
Void in Beast of Darkness O_O So cool!!!
My Lord my Jimmies..... they're rustled
u wot m8?
What a beautiful album this is!!!!!😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈
Deth metal deth metal ®®
Seeing them August 2nd. This is going to be wild.
Lucky
How is it even possible to make those squeally high-lows ?!!
Let's fucking go I'm 49 and can't even get enough great job
DUDE THRY HABE BECOME MY NEW FAVORITE BAND
This whole album is an absolute monster of a deathcore album, but my daaays do I wish After Image was longer. Big boi goosebumps.
Atleast we got 2 solid album an a EP from TAI. Now we have the beast that is Earthshatter and the Demon that is Brand of Sacrifice
*Space slam intensifies*
Haven't heard of space in berserk but cool
@@cooperherbst7569 what is berserk?

I don’t usually go for this end of DM but this is good ear candy
This ain’t DM

Sick ass breakdownzzz😈😈😈
OH FUCK YES. Been waiting for this one. Flawless execution on all fronts.
How the fuck do they get that guitar high pitch sound in the opening riff at 00:13?
I fucking LOVE the post production of this album.
And everything else of course
This CD should be arriving in the mail today if it's not late. :) I didn't realize the album was less than 30 minutes though, huh, oh well.
Sometimes short and sweet is just the way man, I'm digging it though blasting it on klipsch sound system is gnarly.
