Heavy Song of the Week: Dying Wish Deal Out Mosh-Churning Riffage on "Revenge in Carnage"

"The Portland, Oregon band rides a crushing mosh riff during the verses as vocalist Emma Boster unleashes some of the nastiest howls and snarls we've heard all year. The chorus has a bit of clean singing to chase the harsh vox, but there's otherwise no respite until the minute-long outro. Here, Boster sings angelically over calming ambience - a sort of comedown after two minutes of carnage, as the song title itself aptly puts it."

"Bent Sea are a grindcore supergroup featuring Megadeth drummer Dirk Verbeuren, Aborted vocalist Sven de Caluwé, and Napalm Death bassist Shane Embury. And "bent" is right; the main riff here is a twisted and gnarled piece of guitarwork. There's a big payoff when the chorus opens up into a more standard-time groove, but don't get too comfy. That sick riff comes back around."

Dying Wish's "Revenge in Carnage" appears on the upcoming album Flesh Stays Together and delivers relentless heaviness. The track features crushing mosh riffs in the verses and vocalist Emma Boster unleashing harsh howls and snarls. A chorus introduces some clean singing against the harsh vox, but the intensity only abates during a minute-long outro where Boster sings angelically over calming ambience. Bent Sea's "My Fall" showcases a twisted, gnarled main riff and members from Megadeth, Aborted, and Napalm Death, with a chorus payoff that quickly returns to brutality. Chat Pile and Hayden Pedigo's "Radioactive Dreams" blends ominous bellows with lush post-rock crescendos and Americana elements.
