REVIEW

2nd album from US singer-songwriter Ashlyn Perez’s solo project Deadlyswcct.‍

Released just five months after the debut Eternal Lament, this sophomore effort brings in several guest vocalists and leans into nu-metal influences reminiscent of Evanescence, Deftones, and Korn. While the shoegaze elements are slightly less prominent, the album retains its melancholic atmosphere.

Standout track #1 "Torn Remains" blends Ashlyn’s languid, dreamy vocals with clean and screamed guest performances, creating a dynamic that fans of early Evanescence or Lacuna Coil will likely appreciate.
