American Standards – “Weep” Official Music Video
Artist city, country: Phoenix, Arizona, U.S.A.
Artist Biography: Whether you can call it chaotic hardcore, mathcore or experimental metalcore, the noise-laden genre full of dissonant guitars and odd time signatures has had somewhat of a revival in the last few years. While bands like Converge and Every Time I Die continue to release groundbreaking albums, newer acts such as Frontierer, Employed to Serve and The Armed serve up a fresh take on the style. This is where Phoenix, Arizona’s American Standards come in. Formed in 2011, the band has independently released four EPs and toured with some of the biggest names in and out of the extreme genre. Their newest offering ‘Weep’ was premiered May 18th, 2018 exclusively through Decibel Magazine.
The song, which could be teasing a new album to come, employs several of the staples that fans are accustomed to from instruments that erupt into chaos only to stop on a dime, to panic chords which lay the foundation for an unrestrained vocal delivered with the intensity of a screaming banshee. Where WEEP really shines though, is in its attention to song structure and dynamics. It’s these elements that give WEEP its replay value. Rather than being overly technical or heavy for the sake of heavy, it makes the song multidimensional, allowing listeners to really feel the emotion that the band speaks of below.
“We all had a hell of a year. From losing friends and family to other struggles in our lives, it wasn’t hard to get down about stuff. It also wasn’t uncommon to be out having a good time when that heavy feeling would hit me like a tonof bricks. WEEP is about how your past can affect your present. Its about trying to put your life together after tragedy. It’s easy to dwell on negative experiences but at some point you have to decide to pull yourself up and change your perspective because at the end of the day, sometimes that’s all that you have control over.”-Brandon Kellum
So if you’re feeling the void left by bands such as The Chariot, Botch, The Dillinger Escape Plan, Coalesce and The Bled; check out American Standards.

Song Lyrics: “Weep”
I am the ghost
Haunts of the past
Confined to thoughts
Of lost happiness
I have been dragged deeper
Into the void
Will this end
This grief Inside for what I once held
Time must change
Reaching for more from the bottom I dwell
All I hope
That this emptiness will soon pass
Happiness
A feeling of purpose I pray I can grasp
Reborn
Revive
I fight for
a new life
All I wanted
Was to know of a purpose to feel like I belong
But knowing there was no support from you for so long
You linger
In the empty space inside my mind
All I want
Fight to distort what’s engraved in my eyes
Solitude
A constant companion all to familiar
I reach out
Being dragged deeper into the void
I struggle
I struggle
I struggle
I struggle
Every time I feel like I’m making progress
There’s always a constant reminder
That dims the light
That shuts a door
That puts more weight on these shoulders
I’m left crawling through life
Hoping to reach a place of contentment
But I’m lost
