ALBUM: The Fall Of Troy – Manipulator

Interesting artwork, but a thoroughly uninteresting band.

With a clumsy balance across the album, The Fall of Troy teeter between screamo, fuzzrock and traditional metal, with the only connecting thread being the piss-poor vocals. Whether screaming or singing, it all sounds weedy and try-hard.

Sometimes described as ‘mathcore’, The Fall of Troy do the movement a huge disservice because sometimes, y’know, maths can be fun.

However, if you choose to ignore all this, and decide to waste your cash. Manipulator can be bought here.
