Own release
Murder By Millions from Cuijk, Brabant, arose from the ashes of Anubiz and plays a pretty simple form of melodic metalcore. Two weeks before they went into the studio to record this demo their singer left. Fortunately for the band their friend Rob wanted to take over the vocal duties, but he only had two weeks to prepare before he had to record the songs. I don’t know if it’s because of this last minute situation, but I do know that the vocals are the worst thing about this demo. This downside also stands out more because the vocals are in the front of the mix. Maybe they should have chosen to let the music dominate some more to cover it up. Rob sounds really inexperienced on these recordings, especially when you hear the voice of Pjotr (Enemy Ground) next to his in “He’s Gone”. The music of Murder By Millions sounds okay, but it’s nothing too special. It’s effective though, with nice melodies and some cool mosh parts. It’s been over a year and a half since this demo was recorded, so I’m pretty curious about the way Murder By Millions sounds right now. Because with a few adjustments this could work out fine. Cool redneck artwork by the way.

| Super demo! jammer dat de opnames al stok oud zijn. Rob zijn zang is trouwens flink vooruit gegaan sinds deze opnames... nieuwe nummers rocken! |

| Waarom brengen ze dit dan nog uit? Lijkt me niet echt handig dan, toch? | |||

| Als je de master nog hebt lijkt het me ook een kleine moeite om de demo opnieuw in te zingen (dan kun je de rest nog zo laten als het was). | |||

| thanks voor de review en de reacties, ik ben het er mee eens dat de zang minder is, we hadden inderdaad een en ander opnieuw in kunnen zingen, maar we spenderen ons geld en tijd nu liever aan de volgende demo/mcd. we hebben het alsnog uitgebracht omdat we em simpelweg nog hadden, en we de nummers allemaal live nog spelen. We hebben em nog opgestuurd om iets met de kritiek te kunnen doen voor de volgende opnames. |
