Band Info
Band: Volumes

Genre: Groove Metal/Progressive/Hardcore/Djent


5 Piece Groove/Djent masterminds featuring 2 lead vocalists
who are both screamers, whose back and forth vocals and 
alternating ranges are layered together to create a sound that 
is super catchy and leaves the listener begging for more. 
Each songs guitar riffs and breakdowns are fun to headbang 
to and heavy as hell, almost every song has a fun heavy 
bouncy type of breakdown. In 2 songs there are clean vocals.

Management, 'VIA' dropped in 2011, still one of my favorite 
albums, and NEW ALBUM DROPPING IN 2013 
Can't wait for this! 

"Rhythmic, Groove, Technical, Brutal, Captivating, Face 
Melting are all adjectives that do not even come close to
touching the tip of the iceberg when it comes to describing the
sound, image and movement exploding right now out of Southern
California. The source of this decibel shattering,mind-numbing,
captivating phenomenon? Los Angeles metal outfit, VOLUMES."
