SickSense-Fools Tomorrow EP

 Last time I made a post on here, it was to talk about the single Fools Tomorrow by SickSense. Well now we finally have the long awaited second EP of the same title. It was released on June 11th, and I took the time today to give it a listen. 

I will say first off, I will always support this band in everything they do. That being said, this EP is still worth a listen. I never thought I would ever be reviewing a nu metal band, but this one always surprises me. Unfortunately, not every song on this EP was a hit for me, and that's okay. Because for those of you reading this, you may enjoy the EP as a whole. 

On a higher note, I know that everyone in the band worked very hard to produce this EP. Everything does come out of pocket. There were things I did enjoy such as the vocal work, especially on the song Erase, Rewind. I was a little skeptical at first of having a full acoustic song to end the hard hitting, heavy songs before it. But it did make for a nice final song, and shows the range this band has to offer. Hearing the vocal range that Vicky Psarakis has to offer is always welcome. She hits hard with her growls, but also has a softer tone as well. 

Overall, with there only being five songs, there is not much else to say. But I will give it 3 out of 5 stars. It was good and worth a listen. SickSense are definitely making their mark on the nu metal scene by shining a new light on it with their own twist. They are definitely a band you should keep an eye on, because I see more great things in the future.

SickSense-Fools Tomorrow

 Hello everyone. 

I know it has been awhile since I made a post on here. Life has been crazy busy, but I would like to start posting regularly again. So I will be looking into everything music and making posts more frequently. Today I wanted to take some time to talk about an independent band that I've mentioned on here before. That band is SickSense. 

SickSense is a band that I am very close to and have been supporting since the beginning. I did review their first EP titled King Today. So check that out after this if you are interested. But on April 6, they released a new single titled Fools Tomorrow. If I had to describe this song with one word, it would be banger. Whether you are a fan of Nu Metal or not, I highly recommend checking them out. The heavy instrumental is killer, especially because they got the shred master Billy Grey of Fozzy, ton help out.

The vocal work from Vicky Psarakis  is absolutely beautiful. She helps provide the amazing and very catchy chorus, with help from the rap master himself, Robby J. 

If you're interested, you can check their single now, which was also released with a music video. Any help is appreciated. Like I mentioned, they are independent, so they pay for everything on their own. You can help by checking them out, spreading the word, maybe buying some merch, or preordering their new EP Fools Tomorrow, which is out on June 11th. They even have a Patreon you can support as well. It's very cool as you get early access to their music, become a part of their discord channel, and much more. 

If any of this sounds interesting to you, I will link their merch store and their Patreon down below. You can also follow them on social media @sickxsense. 

I appreciate you all for sticking around on this blog. I want you use it to help share and promote the bands that I love. The link below will take you to their store, patreon and more. Thank you again for all your support. Until next time, take care.
