Singled Out vol. iii: 10/31 feat. Tommy Church - The Wrath

 

Nu-Metal is a considered a sub-genre that is reviled by the critics, but loved by many who grew up in beginning of the century and late 1990s’, and now it seems to be reviving in many quadrants. One of the many signs of this is the fact that many bands have made a comeback, albeit in some cases a short one (like Coal Chamber), and the ones that continued in spite of the change of times like Limp Bizkit or Korn are still either selling albums or arenas all over the world.

And where does 10/31 fit in? They were, until recently, signed to a label that focus mostly on the nu-metal subgenre, Zombie Shark Records, and released an amazing track that blends perfectly rap and metal, The Wrath. This track was produced by, who I believe to be one of the rising stars in modern metal fusion styles (composition and production wise), Tommy Church (formerly of Mushroomhead and currently involved in projects that are mostly published by Zombie Shark).

Now, for the single in question, The Wrath, it’s been three years since its’ release, but I believe it can pave the way for 10/31 to achieve a greater audience, since it’s catchy, aggressive, and filled with lyrics that any young person can relate to. And the guitars are amazing, from the clean fills to the ending solo also the use of piano makes it a stand out track from many previous nu-metal offerings. Heres’ to a bright future for 10/31, which is not out of reach as The Wrath can attest to.
