2007
A Perfect Murder really did start out their career sounding like a metalcore band. It didn’t take these Canucks much time, though, to feel out the need to add more thrash and a shit-kicker attitude to their repertoire. The group’s third full-length effort sounds more like a simpler, Phil Anselmo-fronted version of The Haunted than something an angry...

I saw these cats live a few years back and remember them being a fairly straight forward, breakdown-fueled metalcore band, but since then the band apparently listened to a whole lot of Pantera. I mean a whole lot. And a little Alice In Chains, too. Start with a base of Vulgar Display of Power style groovy, hook-filled riffing and add a...

A Perfect Murder is back with a few new tunes after the 2004 release of their Victory Records album 'Unbroken.' The new mini-CD 'Rehearsal' is 27-minutes of hardcore-inspired heavy metal, not far from the ranks of Hatebreed-meets-Testament-meets-old Metallica. Featuring six tracks, three of which are originals, 'Rehearsal' should appeal to straight-forward metalheads and fans of hardcore music alike. "Metal Up Your...

Canada’s A Perfect Murder profess that with Metallica too old and Pantera no longer, one ought to pick up Strength Through Vengeance. I can’t agree with the band more emphatically, because the music on the band’s second Victory Records release is fucking smoking, cool and fun. Though I don’t know anything about APM’s music prior to this disc,...

After a disappointing Victory debut, this short mini-CD of three originals and three covers is a pretty good way to win me over. I don't mean to hurt anyone's feelings but on Unbroken, A Perfect Murder did not sound like a good match for a big label, even an indie like Victory. Those fourteen compositions came across as too serious...

A Perfect Murder hail from Canada, which may (or may not) play in their favor, depending on how you feel about our northern neighbors. Living so far in the South, I tend to think of Canada as an exotic land ice, populated by hairy demonic hordes who dominate the hockey rinks while swigging beer and listening to metal....

Ahh, Victory Records, my how the mighty have fallen... Nah, A Perfect Murder is not that bad, just that anyone into hardcore has heard this before. Unbroken is very reminiscent of Hatebreed, minus A LOT of the mosh and anger. Hints of Shutdown and just about any of the hundreds of posi-sXe-hardcore bands out there pop up, along with a...
