This is the metal music blog of the Heavy Metal Sasquatch. Thriving in the mosh pit environment, all the Yeti needs for sustenance is metal. I review underground metal, upload shitty pictures from shows I go to, and share wicked new metal bands I find along the way. Read this blog to discover new metal! \mXm/
The Heavy Metal Sasquatch has recently fallen down the Progressive Metal rabbit hole. In my decent I have come across Sirens, a band that combines djent and technical death metal with an electronic and ambient fusion. The finished product is a deadly combination of heart pounding intensity and trance inducing slow melodies, all with a clear electronic undertone. Sirens reminds me of Between the Buried and Me; providing both mosh pits and out-of-body experiences at the same time. The thing I love in particular about Sirens is their ability to deliver intense metal riffs combined with serious electronica bass in their music; with their EP "Spore" having many Dub step style bass progressions throughout. Sirens recently released their new single "Drone" from their new unreleased album of the same title. Give it a listen here, and check Sirens out for yourself.
-Overall I am extremely impressed with Sirens ability to transcend multiple musical genres while never straying to far from perfectly executed heavy metal. I feel like Sirens is doing something different in the metal world, providing a fresh metal experience. I highly recommend you give this band your support.
