Emergency Gate You

2013, Emergency Gate is a Modern Melodic-Death/Metalcore Band from Munich. The band was founded in 1996, but the only member remaining from the original line-up is bass-player and manager Mario Lochert. Unlike many other bands, Emergency Gate don't want to stick to a single genre, but blatantly concoct their own sound from the ingredients Scandinavian death metal, power metal and even some metalcore. Although they hardly can claim to come up with something never heard before, the musicians are quite apt at putting a lot of ideas into their songwriting. With the tracks mostly between three and four minutes long, you'll never get the impression that the musicians dwell on something for too long. The death metal influence makes sure that their power metal never sinks into the depths of pathos. The vocals by Matthias Kupka, formerly of Suidakra, are fiercely aggressive and match the instrumentation with the trademark dual guitar attacks and the well placed synthesizers.
