“Lividity” is already album number three for It Dies Today but their first with new vocalist Jason Wood (he used to play bass in Still Remains). The bad news is that the poppy parts with clean vocals are still there and are still equally unimpressive. The good news however is that the heavy parts are really heavy, especially thanks to some impressive drumming over the metallic chugga chugga riffs. If they would focus on bringing the brutality, It Dies Today would have a serious shot at becoming a real player in the metalcore scene. Something they prove to be capable of with a song like “The Architects”, which sees them incorporating some death metal vibes. But too often the clean vocals drag everything back down to mediocrity.
Score: 6 out of 10
