There is strong hardcore influence as well which keeps the rhythm of this record extremely interesting and unique. Add elements of old school death metal and you have some of the meanest music to come out of the early 2000’s.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe guitar work on this record is technical yet absolutely punishing. Some of the grooviest two steps from the era but then breakdowns that come out of absolutely nowhere. The drumming is just as aggressive as the guitars and that double bass tone is iconic from those early days of metalcore. The vocals are such a perfect fit to complement the instrumentals. Bouncy and mean is my favorite way to explain them. Derek follows the rhythm of the guitars so perfectly. I never got to see these guys back in the day but I can only imagine how intense their shows would be.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Taste Of Blood is also a bit of a legacy band with some pretty prominent members going on to play in some huge bands. Chase Fraser is in my opinion one of the most important guitarist to come out of the era. His style is so unique and joining Animosity was such a perfect fit for him. Derek Rydquist also went on to front The Faceless on Akeldama and Planetary Duality which are 2 of the most important albums to come out of the early 2000’s. It’s crazy that TTOB is kind of a jumping point for these members because they are absolutely dripping with talent. The musicianship is top notch throughout their entire discography.
