Virtual Perish: “Crippling Fear” Digital Single 8th August 2025 Fastball Music. Austria Industrial / MetalCore / Alternative / Metal band.
It is with surprise I hear this song from a band I haven’t been used to find on this label. The three piece band is playing the digital music as its best. Samples, lots of distortion, screaming, an explosive sensation. Not my cup of tea at all. It’s cold, no life, what digital is all about.
They have a great logo, but this is the music anybody can do with a simple computer. Hard to put in a box as they are so many little piece of diverse Metal styles in one. It’s like the nineties never evolved but catching on the digital age trying to survive.
The cover is different than the other ones, hard to understand. The fans of the genre will probably dig it, but I admit it is a unusual for me from the Metal sound I’ve heard so far other the years.
Have a test and make up your mind:
Influences: Korn, Architect, Meshuggah, Fear Factory, and many more.
For sure if you want to kick your head after a hard working day, Virtual Perish may be your medicine.
Not for everyone 60/100.
