(Used) GLAMOUR OF THE KILL cd collection The Summoning Savages

Glamour of the Kill are an English metalcore band from York, combining heavy riffs, melodic lead guitars, clean choruses and post-hardcore energy. Their sound should appeal to listeners of Bullet for My Valentine, Avenged Sevenfold and Trivium.

1. The Summoning

Released in 2011, The Summoning is the band’s debut full-length album. It balances metalcore aggression with twin-guitar melodies and highly accessible vocal hooks.

“If Only She Knew,” “World’s End” and “Feeling Alive” provide strong opening tracks, while “Dying from the Inside,” “Lost Souls” and “Supremacy” reveal the album’s heavier side. “Here, Behind These Walls” introduces a darker and more dramatic atmosphere.

A polished debut capturing the melodic metalcore sound of its era.

2. Savages

Released in 2013, Savages moves towards a more direct and modern hard-rock approach without abandoning the band’s metalcore foundation.

“Break,” “Second Chance” and “The Only One” deliver large choruses, while “Live for the Weekend” and “A Freak Like Me” bring a carefree, energetic attitude. “Rescue Me” and “Tears of the Sun” retain the heavier edge.

More streamlined than the debut, Savages is built for immediate impact and crowd participation.
