Adapt To Survive have released their debut album which they happen to self title it. This album has a metalcore feel to them that you can tell has a little bit of an older sound to it. They have a similar feel to that of a Bullet For My Valentine or an All That Remains, so if you are into those bands, you could be interested in this album. They have done an alright job on this album. When looking at the recording quality of this album, the album could use a little bit of a refresh as it has an older, not as crisp feel to the music behind the vocals. The instrumentation is not bad, but again the band seems to have a bit of an average feel to them. They can certainly play though. Now onto the vocals and lyrics, the vocals here are done quite well. He can certainly scream and has a brutal deep scream. The vocals are also clear enough that you can, for the most part, make out what the singer is saying. With the lyrics, the band goes for songs about Addiction, being down and finding a way to pick yourself back up, bringing the hammer down and more. We feel these can be listened to and get a sense of clinging to the lyrics, if you have ever felt this way. They have a bit of a unique spin with the lyrics but they have done a good job. If you are looking for a single to this album, give the song "Brothers In Arms" as this is the best song on the album and will give you a feel of the album. Adapt To Survive have made an album that has some really good highlights and you can see the potential in what this could be if it is massaged the right way. We certainly like it and can't wait to see what is next. Hopefully the band can get out more and expose more people to their music. Listen to this album to decide for yourself what you think of it.
