DECADES OF DESPAIR [NEW PICS/BOOKING TOUR]

About Me

..Decades Of Despair is a five piece melodic death metal band, combining the warm sound of Scandinavian melodic death metal with the efficient rythms and breakdowns of traditional American metalcore.
With heartbreaking melodic parts, brutal scrapping riffs and nasty striking breakdowns, the band delivers the best elements of these two genres, contributing to the richness and intensity of their sound...
Former band members: Romain B. Bigorgne - Guitar ; Olivier Arditi - Drums ; Jean-NoÃ«l Kemp - Drums.
Throes Of The Wretched - EP Critics
.."Decades Of Despair has it all: technique, speed, agression, awesome melodies, dense work of drums, tasty solos and phenomenal vocals. The passion delivered by this band is straight forward and overwhelming. Wonderful! "
Reviewed by Polish Metal Centre..
"The instrumental technicity of the EP is striking. The band delivers high quality riffs, technical but also very catchy. Throes Of The Wretched is an excellent and effecient piece of work which should appeal to fans of the genre and beyond."
Reviewed by Metalorgie
"The black metal type vocals contribute in creating a particular yet fantastic result. This EP is completely brutal and technical from the very first second until the very last. Adding to this high quality solos and an excellent production, this EP is a must have for any death metal lover."
Reviewed by French Metal
"Decades Of Despair's sound is much like The Black Dahlia Murder, but with powerful breakdowns. Everything on this EP is recorded how deathcore should sound, not too overproduced, and not too raw. Keep an eye out for when this EP is available to buy, as it is much worth it."
