Upon first listen to Sylar’s new single, “Assume”, you might be forgiven if you were thinking you had traveled in a timewarp, to a time where nu-metal ruled the rock airwaves. Limp Bizkit, Linkin Park, Papa Roach? Yeah. New York’s Sylar has been peddling their melodic, anthemic brand of aggrotech nu-metal revival for a few years now, and soon experienced success – touring with some really big bands in the scene, and staying on the road for months at a time. Their debut full-length To Whom It May Concern was a solid effort that, even so, made fans and critics want more. Having seen them at some tiny venues over the years up close and personal, they’re a band truly made for the big stage. And with their new single (and impending album, out in August) the sky truly is the limit for Sylar.
Check out the new video below, and make sure to share your thoughts in the comment section. We’re pretty keen on this song – it’s bouncy, melodic, yet still aggressive.
