I just watch their music video.
I'm laughing so hard because
1) the video is fucking hilarious.
2) my throat is using laughter as a defense mechanism to stop any possibility of me hearing the music to prevent my ears from bleeding.
But still the possibility that this band will be huge in the near future is scaring the crap outta me.

The first time I listened to this album, I was shocked. Not because it was perfect, now because it was a failure, but because I had trouble digesting all the emotion that had just hit me. This is, bar none, the most emotional piece of music ever recorded. Simply looking at the album cover gives you an idea of the journey that awaits-who are those people holding hands? Why is one of their hands bleeding? Is this simply a first date, or a farewell? They appear to be in a sort of gothic temple-is the male to reveal that he is in fact a vampire, and that this is his palace? Is he about to make love to his lover, in a location that bears importance to him? One cannot know.

After further listening of this album, all I can say is that is a complete masterpiece, far supperior to such classics as Powerslave and Ride the Lightning. Michael Vampire rips his heart out on those screams, sounding like a vampire being burnt in the sunlight while watching his lover make passionate love to another man. The melodies on this are amazing, they have an amazing sense of beauty yet have a heaviness to them that consistently knocks the listeners socks off. The band really knows how to use auto-tune as an instrument itself, knowing when to and when not to add those vocals-which, as they are sung by the always amazing Michael Vampire, manage to convey a sense of emotion, despite their mild 'fakeness', somewhat like a robotic pinocchio, striving to be a real boy.

You have a great amount of variety here also, songs such as The Embrace, which go at a moderate tempo, allowing the listener to get sucked into the gothic atmosphere, songs such as Immortal Love, where one can feel the distress of Michael Vampire's emotional distress, and songs such as Silver Bullets Don't Kill Vampires, with it's chugging riff that floors the listener with it's bone crushing heaviness before going into it's quasi-electronic chorus, showing that Vampire's Everywhere is also a very progressive band. The song Undead Heart may come across as overtly poppish to the mainstream, but the music perfectly complements the heartfelt lyrics, to meaningful for simple radio listeners to fully comprehend

Of course, the touching ballad Heart For The Heartless is the absolute masterpiece of the album-while many ballads come off as fake, and seem to only exist for the saking of attracting female fans, you can tell that this ballad is authentic, that the band is pouring their soul into the song. It's impossible to describe, but once you get it, the atmosphere becomes superior to heavy metal classics such as Hallowed Be Thy Name and Fade To Black.

Honestly, it's hard to describe how great this album is in mere words. This isn't a collection of songs, this is an experience. This is truly music from the deepest places in our hearts. This is the soundtrack to the diary of a heartbroken vampire. This is Kiss the Sun Goodbye.

I really enjoyed this metaphor of auto-tuning.

But I mean, seeing as how you seem to go to such great lengths in ripping on this band, I can't help but feel that you are a closet-case Vampires Everywhere fan. No need to hide your love, bro; embrace it.

Nah, this band is just so easy to make fun of, and I was bored and felt like writing a review. Vampire based pop/metalcore. Just reading that description makes me smile.

I must ask though-If this band is on metalstorm, why is Bring Me The Horizon not on here? I'm not a fan of them, but their first album is far more metal than this.

I've been asking the same for a long time as well since I know that some people from the staff say that BMTH is obviously metal.

Won't work. Because it will be obviously something you tried just to get a laugh so no one will really get offended unlike on the Enslaved review.
Even less if you wrote those steps and I try post them in the very first comment on that review of yours as a warning so everyone will know that is just some lazy try at getting some people to flame each other so I'llask them to not post on your review at all...

Didn't realize you were such a buzzkill, there, Monsieur Doc. It doesn't matter though. I'll write a troll review sometime when you least expect it.

Trolling the trolls is far more satisfying than trolling the masses considering how most trolls think high of themselves.
