Just over a minute into the track we experience our first down tempo breakdown that continues until the end of the track to produce a bold <strong>Desolated<\/strong> opening.<!-- more --><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><em>\u2018Death By My Side\u2019<\/em> is dominated by chugged riffs and booming percussion, leading into \u2018Suffering\u2019 which notes a similar set up, with vocals particularly shining; focusing on a harsher, deeper bellow in parts, progressing back to the raw vocals that are present during the majority of the EP. Final tracks<em> \u2018Strung Up\u2019<\/em> and <em>\u2018Delusions\u2019<\/em> are just as powerful as the first half of<em> \u2018Disorder Of Mind,\u2019<\/em> continuing to reiterate the true talent and musicianship of the band who really get to grips with their genre.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Desolated<\/strong> have proven that they are very much an integral piece of the deathcore puzzle and <em>\u2018Disorder Of Mind\u2019<\/em> will be sure to pleasure the ears of those that get their hands on it. A very strong, consistent EP and one that will ensure the band will take one step further on that path of success.<\/p>\n<p>4\/5<\/p>\n<p><em>\u2018Disorder Of Mind\u2019<\/em> by <strong>Desolated<\/strong> is out on now via <strong>Desolated Inc<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Desolated<\/strong> links: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/desolateduk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a>|<a href=\"http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/desolateduk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a>|<a href=\"http:\/\/www.desolatedinc.bigcartel.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Website<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Words by Hannah Gillicker (<a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/HannahGillicker\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@HannahGillicker<\/a>)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UK hardcore is thriving, and Desolated are adding their latest offering \u2018Disorder Of Mind\u2019 to the ever growing scene, providing us with their well known deathcore blend.
