Akissforjersey - Victims

Review by Benny Mengesha

"Victims," the 2014 album by Akissforjersey, is a hard-hitting and emotional journey through the struggles of life. The album seamlessly blends elements of metalcore and post-hardcore with catchy melodies and introspective lyrics. From the opening track "War," the listener is thrust into a world of chaos and turmoil, with heavy breakdowns and soaring choruses.

The standout track on the album is "Pariah," which features a hauntingly beautiful piano intro before exploding into a barrage of heavy riffs and screams. The lyrics deal with feelings of isolation and being an outcast, which many listeners will relate to. Another standout track is "Bones," which features a more melodic approach with clean vocals and a catchy chorus.

"Victims" is a solid album that showcases Akissforjersey's ability to blend heavy music with introspective lyrics. Fans of metalcore and post-hardcore will find plenty to enjoy here, and the emotional depth of the lyrics will resonate with anyone who has struggled with the challenges of life.
