Our Take

Bound in Fear's latest offering, "Penance," is a brutal assault on the senses from start to finish. The UK-based quintet has crafted a collection of tracks that are as punishing as they are melodic, showcasing their unique blend of deathcore and metalcore influences.

From the moment the opening track kicks in, it's clear that Bound in Fear mean business. The crushing riffs, guttural vocals, and relentless blast beats hit you like a ton of bricks, leaving you gasping for air. It's music that demands to be listened to at full volume, preferably with the windows down and the neighbours complaining.

But "Penance" isn't all about aggression and brutality. There are moments of unexpected beauty and introspection scattered throughout the album, adding depth and nuance to an otherwise ferocious listen. The clean vocals on tracks like "Torn Between Two Sorrows" provide a welcome respite from the chaos, showcasing the band's versatility and range.

Overall, "Penance" is a triumph for Bound in Fear, solidifying their place as one of the genre's most exciting up-and-coming acts. If you're a fan of heavy music that hits hard and doesn't let up, this album is definitely worth a listen. Just make sure you've got some aspirin on hand for the inevitable headache.
