Metal Bulletin Zine: Paleos - deathcore from Georgia, USA

Paleos is deathcore/metalcore from Georgia, USA. Their 2017 album is called We Are The Weary. Since then they have done a couple of singles, one in the summer of 2020 and another one this summer of 2021. The debut album features gruff, brutal growling and a rather heavy, groovy style, a heavy yet accessible sound, with a bit melody sneaking through, including some melodic singing. There are several things that stand out. The guitar melodies and the soloing offer catchy vibes, like melodic death metal distilled through deathcore/metalcore, like the title track, for instance. On the other hand, there is a sense of a youthful sound going on. They’re interested in heaviness (contemporary American heaviness, post-2000, post-Slipknot heaviness, if you will) and that shows in their deathcore/metalcore/melodic death metal sound. They’re also interested in melody, and having it incorporated to their heaviness. The listener will be able to sense the fluidity and openness of the sound. Anyway, the two new singles, of course, are not enough to say where things will go in the future, but things are looking good so far, not too different from the album, but also there are a few hints of how they are gaining more experience. At any rate, check this chugging heaviness, the brutal deep growling, a bit of melodic singing, and the guitar melodies. That’s their combination into the sound of Paleos.
