Demise Of Eros

about

Demise Of Eros is a metalcore band. Metal and hardcore are tired terrains, and when they're put together, it's even more formulaic and unchallenging. But the metal, hardcore and metalcore worlds you know don't contain Pittsburgh's Demise Of Eros ... that is until now. The relentless five-piece isn't content to sit back and write a breakdown just because that's what's in. They're not comfortable rehashing the same guitar riffs every other band has produced the past half decade. They don't have a desire to sing two part harmonies just because that's what the labels and executives and all the other people hawking merchandise think that's what people want to hear. Demise Of Eros challenge your every preconceived notion, your every emotion, your every inhibition with their blazing dual guitar lines, earth-stomping riffs, chest-bursting kick drum assaults and gasp-for-life vocals. They also hope to challenge everything you ever thought about human emotion, with one getting primary focus --- love. After all, that's where Demise Of Eros dreamed its name. In Greek mythology, Eros is the god of romantic love. "This god can all too often serve as something like an idol in peoples' lives," Darren said. "Eros leads us to believe that it is the ultimate good in human life. Sometimes overtly, and almost always subconsciously, our culture praises this love as that which will bring ultimate happiness and fulfillment. But the god becomes a demon if it doesn't submit to Love Himself. Romant
