Band Feature: N.A.M.E.

When I heard that first song on their MySpace page, my first reaction was “Damn! This is off the hinges!”. N.A.M.E. fits in with many other noisy, chaotic experimental metalcore bands, but seem to reign in the chaos (just slightly) for better production and tighter playing. The end result isn’t necessarily “heavier” from a low end sense, but it’s a lot sharper, especially in a painful stabbing sense, which helps to send the message home.

N.A.M.E. put out a release near the end of February titled “Memoirs For My Sweetheart, The Whore” on Gomek. Gomek is an interesting label, because if you go to their website, they offer all their releases for free in downloadable zip files that contain mp3s and art.
