by NeverWake Khayree Billingslea Walter Horstman Aaron Fineman Paul Towsey âVitalityâ is the first full-length release by NeverWake. It collides rock and metal to create a new hard-hitting sound that bridges both genres and invites all listeners. Step into the first chapter of this ominous journeyâ¦

âAs a group that seems to hit the sweet spot in metal and rock youâll find a more tolerable Trivium and a great match to Bullet For My Valentine. You wonât even get watered down like Avenged Sevenfold here.

Iâm going back to this album for a review and Iâm glad to know that I still have a great time listening to these 12 killer songs. The first 3 bring metal and rock with blisters, and thatâs a great thing. The music soars, the tempo is energetic and the vocals have intelligence. But itâs in âFatal Remedyâ that things start to showcase even more profound vocal talent, floating easily into my favorite song on the album, âWidowmakerâ. This is a radio single in my opinion and I ease back in my broken love seat and meld into this masterpiece.

The tempo kicks back up a bit with a thrilling riff in âUnjustifiedâ and Iâm ready to mosh, sing, mosh, sing and repeat. âTwisted and Wickedâ starts to give the album variety and showcases more bang for your buck. âErasedâ slows down and here I am listening to a band that should be signed AND make the majority of the profist themselves. The album continues with some variety and finishes with âBuried So Deepâ which sounds like a nod to Breaking Benjamin.

All in all, if you hate metal, youâre wrong. Just listen to Neverwake and youâll know what I mean. If you hate rock, I repeat, listen to Neverwake and youâll love it. If you want the sweet spot, like the way Reeseâs gets peanut butter and chocolate right, youâll love this album! The music hits just right, giving you a break from moshing so you can sing along and right back again. Thereâs nothing bad to say about this album. I turn the volume way up to a 10 on these bad boys!â
