Album Review: Counterparts - Tragedy Will Find Us

17 July 2015 | 12:57 pm | Maria Coiro

"Their musicianship has a tightened and become more dynamic."

 
Embracing their familiar roots with breakdowns and emotional vocals, Tragedy Will Find Us shows Counterparts' progression.
 
Sounding a touch heavier and darker, their musicianship has a tightened and become more dynamic. Choke's breakdown incorporates an eerily spoken message about perjury that abruptly ends with a shivering "I hope you choke to death." Album closer, Solace pays homage to their previous album title stating they've finally identified the difference between hell and home, involving a lover's experience, seemingly torn between staying with them or away from them. A well received addition to any hardcore collection, Tragedy Will Find Us leaves a lasting impression.
