Every Time I Die
Buffalo-based metalcore quintet Every Time I Die formed in the winter of 1998. Spearheaded by brothers Keith (vocals) and Jordan Buckley (guitar), the founding lineup also included guitarist Andrew Williams, bassist John McCarthy, and drummer Michael "Ratboy" Novak. During their first short tour of New York and Canada, the fledgling group befriended Goodfellow Records chief Chris Logan, who released their debut EP, The Burial Plot Bidding War, in 2000. Bassist Aaron Radaczyk replaced McCarthy prior to recording Every Time I Die's first full-...[more]

Every Time I Die began turning heads in the hardcore community with their debut release, Burial Plot Bidding War, which was released on a small independent Canadian label called Good Fellow Records. Ferret Records caught wind of this phenomenal upstate New York quintet and quickly secured them with a record deal, and soon thereafter Last Night in Town emerged. This album is a cathartic, chaotic release, finding Every Time I Die careening from metalcore crunch to exhausting screamo [ read more ]

While this may be the sophomore full-length album from New York's Every Time I Die, it hardly falls into the sophomore slump of which so many acts seem plagued. Instead, this five-piece has taken a smart, safe step with some variations of its metal-core style, but keeps things primarily intact, thus not alienating too many fans. One variation that has been infused into the sound is an occasional Southern rock guitar sound, another is vocals that aren't always at a heart-piercing scream: occasionall [ read more ]

Gutter Phenomenon is a term that was used in the 1950s to describe rock n roll music. It was society's reaction, at the time, to a style of music it considered 'sinful.' Rock music was actually viewed as a discredit to American society. The people at the time believed that rock music would lead to people's downfall. They thought rock ?n roll would never last. Fast-forward 50 years, and rock 'n roll is still a thriving force of expression. However, when any music scene or culture flourishe [ read more ]

If this album is, as the press materials insist, a "party-friendly free-for-all," then there's something seriously wrong with parties these days. That's not to say that the music isn't impressive, just that it's hard to imagine chatting up a girl or laughing with friends while this album is playing anywhere in the vicinity. Every Time I Die prominently features groove-based Southern rock elements in its arrangements, but that's about where the fun ends: occasional (and brief) sung melodies arise now a [ read more ]

On their fourth full-length overall, 2007's The Big Dirty, Every Time I Die continue to unleash furious hardcore-tinged metal. While countless bands have gotten increasingly experimental and even downright artsy fartsy with each successive release, it appears as Every Time I Die is going in the opposite route -- refining and focusing their sound/attack even more so. And this is certainly not a bad thing -- the intensity is more evident than ever before. Singer Keith Buckley lives to scream [ read more ]
