So there first full length album has come out and I like it. It's definitely some sort of offshoot of metalcore but the female vocals are awesome. The songs are definitely structured funny but DEP couldn't write a smooth song when they first started out either. So if you've checked the full album out let me know what you think of them. I think they deserve to be more than just simply disregarded because they have a horse neighing in their breakdown.

The first three tracks on their page are off their new album, the rest is their debut EP which people lambasted:

Their myspace kinda makes my eyes bleed.

Well they are certainly better off with female vocals than some lousy guy whining his way through the breakdowns. Not the worst core I've heard, some of it was actually a little cool, but overall not for me

Buh. I heard one song that I thought was decent, but then I heard more, and they're all the fucking same, but more terrible.

It wasn't bad at first, then the song kept going on and it got worse from there.

If they took out all the random stupid sound clips and the "experimental" parts, they'd be a half decent technical deathcore band. The above mentioned parts nearly kill it for me.

[]No
[]Of course fucking not

I thought their EP was horrible but I heard a song from their new album and it was kind of cool. Not sure if I'll listen to the whole thing though.

Meh. I kept wishing that they'd drop the Deathcore stuff and just let her sing with the keyboards and other stuff. Deathcore: turning good bands into rubbish ones since 2005.

You can't take seriously a band with a name like that.
