This song is great, but I didn't expect this new kind of sound, particularly in the vocal delivery. This band is so good, far better than most of the so-called "metalcore" bands that came out in the early 2000s, but sadly they got lost in the shuffle, I think. Way underrated.

I like the new song, but their sound has changed a bit (from what I remember).

Great song. Are their earlier releases sound even remotely close? I have some troubles appreciating typical metalcore vocals.

Musically, yes. They've always been a bit more progressive in their approach than other similar bands, but I don't recall an entire song sung this way.
They have some clean singing, though:
But most of their tunes are in this vein:

I like the song. Metalsucks premiered it last week and I checked it out then. Great band and like you said Eyesore, way underrated.

Byzantine have a new album coming out. This new tune has more of an early 90s metal sound. It kicks ass!

I'm glad the new album is finally coming out. Eyesore posted those new songs back in late 2012/early '13...

Those songs were for another album, self-titled, which came out in 2013.
