Although they only formed in January 2010, they already have one superb recording up and a slew of past and up coming shows. It is clear this is a band that’s going somewhere, and if they can continue to put out music of this quality this quick, then they’ll be going somewhere fast.

“Forms” are a Progressive Metalcore band, but not in the “Architects” and “Structures” style, but rather they take from bands such as “Acacia Strain” and “For the Fallen Dreams”, and throw in great Progressive guitar parts on top, and don’t follow the usual never ending breakdown style of most moshcore bands. They keep you guessing at what’s next, while always able to keep your head nodding to the groove. This is a band that you can listen to over and over for a few reasons. Firstly, it’s down right heavy, and laced with original breakdowns for grooving to. Secondly, there is enough complexity in the music to make you come back to listen to listen to what exactly is going on in each part.

It is clear that it won’t be long before we are seeing this band across all of North America, because of thier ability to quickly write great music and be a productive band towards taking real steps forward as a professional band.

This band is great for fans of “Acacia Strain”, “Shadow Of The Colossus”, “For The Fallen Dreams” and (old) “Born Of Osiris”.
