    I just recently started listening to Deathcore, I immediately fell in love with Tom's voice and style when I was shown Darko, found Chelsea Grin and from there I found the older Lorna Shore stuff with Tom, I cannot get enough of his music. Darko and Chelsea Grin have very quickly have made it into my top 5 favorite bands, I only wish I found this music sooner

      Nice that your listening to Deathcore now bro, Tom is one of the best vocalists out there. It's nice to see people getting into the craft.

      Damn! Similar situation to me. I started listening to deathcore in 2020. Hostage was the first song and I was instantly hooked. I heard Darko shortly after. . I love the new Chelsea Grin stuff too. Tom is so talented. It’s crazy that he sounds so different between the two

    Sounds like the levels on Tom's mic need to be heated up to a comparable level.
    Unbalanced audio between both of you.
    Good stuff other than that.

    If you are planning on going to a Chelsea Grin show I highly recommend spending the money for the VIP experience. The whole band was awesome but Tom was amazing. The rest of the band had to almost drag Tom away from the fans to get ready for their show. Easily the best vocalist out right now as well.
