Crushpile

i got to check these guys out at a local club and bought the cd. definatly one of the better bands in the area. the music is tight and chunky, but has a groove and is melodic at the same time. they take a lot of different influences (metal, funk, hardcore,etc.) and put it together tastefully without sounding like anyone else. powerfull guitars , snarling bass lines, tight drums and in your face vocals are what these guys are about. overall a great blend of new and old metal with melodic solos and riffs (yes! guitar solos!!! finally guitarists that can play!!) that has something for everyone. they're definatly on to something! check these guys out!!!!!! - Grendle

CRUSHPILE
"457"
Demo 2003
The next demo of CRUSHPILE includs 4 tunes this time: "Warcock ", "Sawtooth ", "457 " as well as "Click Dark ".
The tunes are well-kept in similar convention like previous material, although already the first tune portrays the progression of team.
The tunes are more melodious, dark but still beats from them aggression and strong dynamicsl.
The guitars besides the rhythmical, strong dead-beat riffs bring also the melody by solos or the melodious riffs.
The rhythmical section still is curiously arranged, which perfectively underlines the frequent changes of rhythm and mood.
However sound of vocal is more stabilized (dominate sharp melodious vocalizations).
But does not mind that we will not hear calm vocals or else aggressive screams.

"Crushpile"
Demo 2001
The first demo metal-men from New Jersey includes 3 tunes: "Owning Up", "Nutlob" and "Vegas".
The substance of music is create by the very dynamic and rhythmical thrash metal with influences of nu metal or hard core.
Every tune is characterizes by sharp dynamics, the dynamics is create by hard rhythmical and dead-beat the guitars.
The complex parties of drums and bass guitar diversify the diverse tempo and the mood.
The mood also is underlined by front-man obviously (using several sounds of voice - from clean recitations and gentle vocalization till sharp aggressive shouts).
The arrangements here and there are enriched by leading parties of bass, or sharp or the melodious guitar solos as well as guitar scratches.
The whole I would compare to e.g. PANTERA or DAMAGEPLAN and sometimes I think the associations with RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE (but seldo - http://www.borntodie.elbi.pl/demoa.html
