Disguise, il nuovo attacco metal dei Motionless In White

Rate this post

Nuovo album per la band americana, che propone il suo mix micidiale di metalcore e nu metal pieno di influssi gothic

Gli italoamericani in formazione sono rimasti due: il leader cantante-chitarrista-tastierista Chris Cerulli e il batterista-tastierista Vinny Mauro, in forze alla band dal 2014.

Ma la formula musicale dei Motionless In White è quella di sempre: un mix ben dosato ed efficace di gothic metal, industrial, nu metal e metalcore, il tutto arricchito dall’esperienza (quattordici anni) e dalla pratica degli studi d’incisione.

I Motionless In White

Il prodotto di questa maturazione artistica, avvenuta in perfetta coerenza con le proprie scelte artistiche iniziali è Disguise (2019), quinto album in studio del quintetto della Pennsylvania e secondo uscito per la storica Roadrunner Records, in cui la line up consolidatasi lo scorso anno, dà una grande prova di compattezza e versatilità.

Infatti, il nuovo ingresso, il bassista Justin Morrow (approdato ai Miw dagli Ice Nine Kills) risulta perfettamente a suo agio con le partiture non facili e piuttosto varie della band e i due chitarristi Ryan Stikowsky e Ricky Olson esibiscono un amalgama solido e roccioso.

Diciamo subito che l’originalità non è il forte della band, che dichiara sin troppo le proprie influenze nel songwriting.

Apre le danze Disguise, title track e singolo apripista, in cui l’approccio pesante, a cavallo tra metalcore e nu metal coesiste con una melodia radiofonica e controcanti rap con puntate nel growl. Un pastiche tipico della scuola metalcore, ma ben eseguito e, soprattutto, concepito con credibilità.

La copertina di Disguise

La matrice nu metal emerge con più prepotenza in Headache, che omaggia i Korn in maniera sfacciata. Ma, al solito, ciò che conta non è tanto il cosa ma il come e non può proprio passare sotto traccia l’eccellente camaleontismo vocale di Cerulli, a suo agio sia nel refrain malinconico che nelle sfuriate in growl.

Con la bizzarra </c0de> le coordinate sonore virano verso l’alternative e in questo caso il riferimento ai Linkin Park è praticamente un obbligo.

Notevoli le performance strumentali in Thoughts & Prayers, che culmina in una esplosione di trash metal nella parte centrale con la doppia cassa di Mauro in bell’evidenza. Probabilmente l’apice dell’album, anche se l’orecchio esperto non può non cogliere il riferimento agli Slipnokt più tosti.

Difficile aspettarsi una ballad dai Miw e infatti Legacy, un pezzo potente e cadenzato, è tuttavia la performance più pacata dell’album.

Con l’irriverente Undead Ahead 2: The Tale Of The Midnight Ride, emerge la grande passione di Cerulli e soci per l’immaginario horror: riff pesanti di ispirazione doom e dalle sonorità industrial, armonie gothic e nenie stralunate più le solite sfuriate. Forse non il massimo dell’originalità, ma l’impatto resta notevole.

L’appeal radiofonico emerge marcato anche nella potente Holding On To Smoke, in cui spicca il contrasto tra il refrain pesante e il coro da stadio.

Il connubio violenza-melodia è ancora più spinto nella passionale Another Life.

L’industrial e il gothic riprendono il sopravvento nella tostissima Broadcasting From Beyond The Grave: Death Inc., un bell’omaggio a due maestri come Marylin Manson e Rob Zombie condito di dissacrante ironia.

Ancora nu metal (sempre in salsa industrial) nella dinamica Brand New Numb, secondo singolo tratto da Disguise.

Un primo piano di Chris Cerulli

Chiude l’epica melodia di Catharsis, con un bel crescendo che strizza l’occhio ai Muse ma con molta potenza in più.

Undici pezzi di qualità, senza cedimenti e con una grande varietà compositiva ben distribuita. Sonorità durissime ma brillanti, merito anche della produzione del bravo Drew Fulk, e tanta fantasia nel songwriting che mette in secondo piano la non eccessiva originalità.

Ancora in azione dal vivo

Ma tant’è: la ricetta proposta dai Motionless In White è la stessa che nel passato recente li ha proiettati nella top ten di Billboard.

I cinque della Pennsylvania sono tornati bene e in gran forma. Soprattutto, si rivelano dei modernizzatori validissimi e credibili delle formule sonore d’inizio millennio, che in mani d’altri risulterebbero logore.

Potenti, duri e a tratti entusiasmanti, i Motionless In White colpiscono giusto ancora una volta. Il minimo sindacale per dedicargli un ascolto. O no?

  1. I must warn you, it is a higher volume than the workouts you learn above earlier.
    In quick, German Volume Methods (GVT) was initially used for energy features.
    Good luck, prepare exhausting, comply with this system, and
    benefit from the results. It is all properly and good to have a clean and healthy whole-foods food regimen but many
    of us will see big advantages from basic supplements like creatine or d-aspartic acid.
    Solely the last 2-3 sets of your 10 units ought to be tough.

    After this 3-week block, you possibly can return to the German Quantity Coaching
    method by doing the next ten units of six reps routine.
    In the workouts which may be prescribed for 10 units, use a load you’d
    usually have the power to do 12 repetitions with. The goal on this section is to do ten units of six with that load.
    The aim of the German Quantity Training method is to complete ten sets of ten reps with
    the identical weight for each exercise.
    After years of investigating trendy and “up and coming” health regimes,
    she is ready to share the information and recommendation she’s discovered from athletes and expert trainers of the field.
    As you strain certain muscle teams to the max at a time, safety and damage prevention must be famous.

    Exceeding this range may not lead to additional positive aspects and will lead to
    overtraining and decreased progress. One group did 10 sets of 10 repetitions, while the opposite did 5 units of 10 repetitions.
    Progressively rising the burden ensures that your muscular tissues are regularly adapting and rising.
    Begin by deciding on a weight that you can raise for roughly 20 reps.

    You can add small variations, however you would possibly want to keep workout routines the same so you’ll be able to systematically make
    progress by improve the load used for each exercise each cycle.

    Repeat this cycle 4 times and you’ll have completed the first Training Block.
    Your muscles are going to be on hearth and you’ll likely be extremely
    sore for two or 3 days after a workout.
    Do just one train per physique half with the 10 x 10 system, and only up to two
    workouts with this method in a single workout.
    You can do two to three different accent workout routines that prepare
    totally different muscle teams, or another for a similar muscular tissues
    you labored with 10 x 10 for 3 sets of 10 to 12 reps every.
    The German Quantity Training methodology is a well-thought-out program promoting muscle hypertrophy and power.
    The program’s ten units of 10 reps scheme break your muscle fibers down and
    trigger vital metabolic stress, contributing to hypertrophy.
    As a certified personal trainer, I saw significant results within six to eight weeks with consistency and dedication. My
    body reacted positively to the excessive quantity
    and intensity of GVT, stimulating muscle growth and strength
    improvement, but your responses might range.
    Additionally generally recognized as the 10×10 training method, GVT focuses on performing ten sets of ten repetitions for a particular exercise with a excessive training quantity.

    This training strategy aims to stimulate muscle growth,
    improve muscular endurance, and enhance general energy.

    Tips ensure trainer safety – rest is essential between units, and may last between 60 and ninety seconds.

    Throughout the set the lifter must also think about the amount of weight.

    For any given exercise, only about 60% of the lifter’s
    one rep max must be used. A comparable research revealed within the
    2018, investigated the impact of a 12-week modified German Volume Training intervention,
    or the 10 units technique, on muscle strength and hypertrophy.
    12 wholesome male individuals had been randomly assigned to both a 5-SET or 10-SET group and performed 5
    or 10 units, respectively, of 10 repetitions at 60–80%
    one-repetition maximum (1RM).
    You everything you may get your hands on after which eat some more.
    Accent Training – Calves, abs, traps and forearms are could be educated 2-3+ instances a
    week or as needed. Don’t Miss a Exercise – If you do miss a day,
    simply pick up the place you left off. Don’t miss greater than two days
    in a row if you can help it. You want to get in a rhythm and keep there
    till you end the whole routine.
    GVT will allow you to construct muscle and get stronger, but specializing in too few workouts and only doing
    units of 10 reps can result in boredom and possibly contribute to overuse injuries.
    Similarly, folks with impaired restoration – for instance, not sufficient sleep, weight-reduction plan for fats
    loss, or too much life stress – can be higher off with a lower-volume coaching strategy.
    Such people may do better with a extra moderate method,
    similar to a 2- or 4-day upper/lower cut up.
    Each session contains 4 workouts break up into two supersets.
    The first superset accommodates compound lifts like squats or bench presses, which serve as the muse of your progress.

    These are paired with opposing actions for optimized
    coaching.

  2. Nonetheless, did you know that creatine can even have other effects on both
    your mental and bodily health? To be taught extra, we spoke with specialists about
    creatine’s advantages, effects on weight, results and how to choose
    the right supplement. Supplement firms declare this chelation protects creatine from stomach acid breakdown, delivering more to muscle tissue with
    less waste. It’s typically dosed at 2.5–5 grams every day, with promises of reduced
    bloating and improved exercise efficiency in comparability with monohydrate.

    Introduced in the early 2000s, creatine pyruvate drew
    consideration with a 2001 study displaying it increased blood creatine
    levels greater than monohydrate over a single dose.
    This is a false assertion, and extra may be proven that,
    in flip, creatine can have positive effects on individuals with diabetes, possibly aiding in the enhance of glucose control.
    Decreasing myostatin might be extraordinarily helpful to getting the outcomes you need with out fighting genetics.
    We also recommend adding in a protein powder for muscle gain when operating creatine.

    At the end of the research, higher increases
    in lean mass and energy had been seen in the group that took creatine
    after exercise. During the four-week study, participants weight skilled 5 days per
    week and took creatine either before or after train. One research
    examined whether it was more effective for
    grownup males to consume five grams of creatine earlier than or after exercise (16).
    These performance advantages are likely because of creatine’s
    essential role in mobile energy production (15).

    Swolverine Creatine Monohydrate is a high-quality creatine
    supplement that meets many necessary standards for critical athletes.
    As a pure vegan and gluten-free product, it offers a clear choice for these with dietary restrictions.
    With 4 great-tasting flavors to select from, zero added sugar and no synthetic components, Legion Recharge delivers
    an clean, effective method to support muscle restoration after train.
    While the unflavored powder may not be appealing to all users, it may possibly simply be combined with different dietary supplements or drinks.
    Some customers may prefer a product with added ingredients for muscle development or recovery, however Jocko Gas Creatine Monohydrate Powder is
    a superb possibility for those in search of a simple and effective creatine complement.
    Nevertheless, these with kidney problems ought
    to seek the advice of with a healthcare skilled before using
    this product. Whether Or Not you’re an athlete, bodybuilder, or fitness enthusiast,

    accelerate muscle recovery. Gainful’s Creatine Monohydrate is a premium-quality supplement designed

    To compensate for this, I rely on third-party certifications to ensure the supplements on this record have what the label
    says it does. These certifications are a way
    to vouch for the product’s high quality, purity and security.
    Price Range creatine supplement buyers should consider BulkSupplements.com’s Creatine Monohydrate Powder.
    It Is an unflavored, budget-friendly creatine powder that is freed from additives.
    This greatest creatine powder has been micronized, which means the particles are
    smaller, permitting easier mixing into liquids. People with kidney, liver or heart disease and/or
    hypertension ought to avoid creatine supplementation, say Larson and Moody, as this could worsen such present circumstances.

    “I slept better, my muscle definition was higher, and I felt like I had a bit more endurance after a couple weeks of use,” said one happy tester.
    Questioning should you should start adding the fitness complement to your morning smoothie?
    The Good Housekeeping Institute specialists requested a panel of testers to
    try them out to search out out. Creatine is an extremely safe supplement,
    in so far as any complement may be protected. Consultants share what you should know before dropping dollars on this pretty new products.

    diet, and supplementation. Matt’s content material and copywriting companies help manufacturers elevate their on-line presence,
    build authority, enhance search engine optimization, and drive sales.
    Anecdotal proof additionally suggests positive effects
    on decreasing stomach cramps and bloating generally skilled when using traditional creatine dietary
    supplements. By stopping that ordinary conversion of ingested creatine
    into a ineffective waste product in our our bodies, we get more
    bang for our buck. Each serving now works harder to help us construct muscle and enhance performance
    successfully. Let’s dive into the science behind this groundbreaking product, buffered to a pH stage of 12
    for optimal benefits in athletic performance and muscle building.
    But the advantage of creatine HCL and creatine monohydrate
    is that most pre-, post-workout, and dietary dietary supplements don’t typically embrace a lot.
