With their first full length album release of The Rabbit Hole coming out in 2021, Deadtide has shaken up the melodic death metal scene for sure. This album can be listened from front to back, back to front, or any way in between and will be nothing short of amazing. With a mix of clean vocals and brutal screaming, these lyrics pair perfectly with scorching guitar solos and drum work. This is a band that could tour with Powerwolf, Death, or Judas Priest and fit into the show just as amazingly in each one. The title track, The Rabbit Hole, is perhaps one of the best melodic death metal songs of all time. It evenly blends all the elements that create this genre, with the vocals and instrumentals varying within the song but all coming together nicely. For fans of a heavier or classic death metal feel, take a listen to “Finish the Nightmare,” Deadtide has been making the rounds at local clubs and bars after this last album and I personally cannot wait to get a circle pit going to these new tracks!
