Sonic Violence's "Transfixion" isn't metal

First Post May 21, 2025 12:34 PM

As much as Sonic Violence maintained their earlier heavy bleakness in Transfixion, I would not consider this metal. The music is greatly reliant on bass and synths with a complete absence of guitars. I mean, there are some bands that can still be metal without guitars like PainKiller and Bell Witch, but it's all about how the rest of the instrumentation is utilized. So I'd like to submit Sonic Violence's "Transfixion" to the Hall to be removed from The Sphere and labelled non-metal.
