Species - Pineal Sweat [REVIEW]

Genre(s): Progressive Deathcore/Groove/Djent

Species' recently released single "Pineal Sweat" is a combination of progressive deathcore, groove, and djent. The pace of the song is upbeat, but slower in some parts of the song. Instrumentally it sticks to the standard progressive deathcore sound, with the exception of some groove near the middle of the song. When I say standard, I mean that the 'guitar twang' sound you normally hear in progressive deathcore/metalcore band is what is mainly heard here. The vocals used are low screams and high screams, and they're both gritty sounding, which I like quite a bit. Overall "Pineal Sweat" is a solid deathcore song, it doesn't stray away from the already established path of progressive deathcore, but solid nonetheless. Pick it up on their Bandcamp page for name your price!

Score: 3/5
