The Survival Code Delivers a Dynamic Alt Rock Gradient in ‘Whispers of Woe’
The Survival Code is an immutable rock band. Their plays, energy levels, and compositional structures are raw and visceral, and desperately aggressive as in the case of survival. With face melting riffs, rising melodies, and loud drums, the soundscapes return us to base human urges, celebrating its potency and passion. And that’s what you’ll witness in their latest album, ‘Whispers of Woe’. Each track distills melancholy, stretching it to uncover its dynamic gradients and excitations. This is the band’s third studio album. Subscribing to the epic proportions of 90s alt rock, it hinges on nothing and obliterates everything. Listen Now!
The album is a fourteen-song collection, introduced by the grunge-infused, punk addled, nu metal bloom of ‘The Heart Will Bleed’. The bold and brash frames pop with an anthemic orchestra of vocals that just brings the track home. Its intensity and ardent momentums are transformed by these vivid streams of vibrance.
It is like the artists are creating wormholes within the established walls and rules of the soundscape. This spark of exotic matter is seen in various instances across the collection. There’s always an unexpected curve or a sudden tangent that revolutionizes the composition. In ‘Never Knew You Existed’, they pioneer a seamless shift from 90s alt rock to 60s hard rock. Emotion leads energy here and leaves behind references to legends like The Who, Led Zeppelin and AC/DC, in its wake.

The band also explores power-pop in a fashion that liberates it. Tracks like ‘We Are Just Fooling Ourselves’, ‘Digging Your Own Grave’ and ‘Random Faces’ especially stand out. Tightly packed riffs are washed with heavy basslines and amazing drum fills. And through this fog of rock, a pop vocal spell is cast.
The chaotic symmetries of ‘Built to Break’ brings in a new variety of the band’s charisma. It is hard core, knotted and squeezed with grunge. The grit is addictive and so is the gloom. ‘Can’t Be Explained’ is an emo flavored alt rock that utilizes the resilience of grime to multiply across the soundscape. ‘Before The Dark Takes All Of Us’ elevates this grit combining it with mild metal brackets and groovy guitar work.
The band has proven themselves time and again to be superior not only in concept and ideation but in technique and skill as well. They unearth the pure and unfiltered sphere of human emotion and experience. And it is a riot and a reward. Listen Now!
