A truly new and unique style of bludgeoning, crossover hardcore/metal music has been unleashed on the masses through "THE SUFFERING OF MAN," the newest full length release coming off of Stillborn Records by renowned NY hardcore/metal veterans SUBZERO. This is the highly anticipated follow up from their acclaimed, debut Stillborn release, "NECROPOLIS, CITY OF THE DAMNED e.p." "TSOM" is a down poor of vicious, hard driving up in your face bass & guitar riffs which at times merge into crushing "Sabbath esq" breakdowns and grooves in the style of what DEFTONES or later day ENTOMBED and CORROSION OF CONFORMITY might consist of. Vintage style thrash breaks and guitar solos scream through out the album. Absolute damaging and monstrous drum beats with impeccable timing and groove exemplify just how an album can still sound heavy as fuck without having to over saturate it with double bass beats. True, hardcore lyrics lash out against the establishment and the mainstream along with brutally honest, passionate and gut wrenching vocals that tell true to life at times "morbid" tales of reality. Song titles such as SWINGIN' FROM THE NOOSE, TO YOUR GRAVE, and FORCED TO BLEED that deal with issues of abuse, social injustice, depression, suicide, drug addiction and the will to overcome it all brand this album with the appropriate title, "THE SUFFERING OF MAN." Terrorizer magazine put it best when they said, "While still maintaining the essence of their genuine hardcore roots the band manages to be quite diverse in its musical ethic." This quote holds true to the bone as the band naturally mixes "Cro-Mags" style hardcore with elements and characteristics of classic underground metal (VENOM, CELTIC FROST, BATHORY, MOTORHEAD) along with almost "rock like" grooves that you would hear from the likes of DEFTONES or even BLACK SABBATH. Through out the album creeps a chilling feeling of grave terror or at times a complex ambience of wallowing saddness and self loathing. It's something that makes it stand out from the norm and will be sure to raise hairs on the backs of necks. Recognized for causing some of the most savage, blood spilling pits in NYC's infamous CBGB, SUBZERO's live performance will consume you with pure aggression and ferocity. And in these times of struggle and pain we have to find a positive outlet to release all of that anger and frustration as a cleansing of the mind, body and soul. THE SUFFERING OF MAN is that outlet. SUBZERO is the band that will take you there.
Since Subzero's CENTURY MEDIA RECORDS release of "HAPPINESS WITHOUT PEACE" & after that, STILLBORN's "NECROPOLIS, CITY OF THE DAMNED" in 2003, SUBZERO have toured the world many times over as headliners and as a support group under national acts as well. They've played all the major festivals in Europe and have shared the stages with the likes of SLAYER, MEGADETH, KILLSWITCH ENGAGE, MOTORHEAD, BAD BRAINS, EMINEM, RAMONES, IRON MAIDEN, MACHINE HEAD, CRADLE OF FILTH, HATEBREED, REFUSED, MISFITS, NAPALM DEATH, DROPKICK MURPHYS and many more as they appeal to such a diverse audience. In fact they were one of the first 5 American hardcore bands to ever tour Japan to sold out audiences and open the gates for the bands to come.The most influential critics had nothing but praise for them. The reviews speak for themselves. Here are just a few from some of the most critical aggressive music publications ever to exist to this day.
