Vs. Tuesday: Two Bands! One Song! Who Wins? FIGHT! Animals.

We were beginning to wonder when Brighton Progressive Metalcore heroes Architects would resurface after the “Cycle of Suffering” album from guitarist Josh Middleton’s other band Sylosis and so the surprise release of single “Animals” via Epitaph Records before their Royal Albert Hall live streamed show was something of a moment. The track itself brings some “Sempiternal” era Bring Me The Horizon vibes with a surprising amount of synth work creating a soundscape.

So to today’s head to head. In the red corner we have a re-imagined version of the song from Christina Rotondo, a lady who has made something of a reputation for herself for covers of tracks by the likes of Wage War as well as her own material. In the blue corner we have Eissa Zhovnerchuk from Copenhagen Denmark, Progressive Metalcore act Morphide. She’s joined by multi instrumentalist João Medeiros for her version of the track. Who wins? You decide!
