MAKE THEM SUFFER How To Survive A Funeral CD 2020

Perth produces two things in unusual quantities: extreme heat and extreme metal bands. Make Them Suffer are firmly in the latter category.

How To Survive A Funeral is the band's third full-length and their sharpest pivot yet, leaning harder into melodic metalcore territory without abandoning the symphonic deathcore roots that built their reputation. It's a record that knows exactly what it wants to be: big choruses, crushing low-end, orchestral flourishes that don't feel borrowed so much as owned. Sean Harmanis and Louisa Burton trade vocal duties across tracks that deal with grief, survival, and the particular emotional wreckage that the title promises. Australian heavy music has been punching internationally for years, and this album is part of why. If you've been following the Melbourne and broader Australian metal underground, Make Them Suffer showing up on a major via UNFD was a moment, not a sellout.

Format: Full Length CD. Australian release, 2020. Genre: Symphonic Deathcore / Metalcore.
