"It's actually inappropriate to label them metalcore."

More Saviour More Saviour

There are many soundalike metalcore/post-hardcore acts doing the rounds right now, but Saviour are not one of them.

It's a difficult sub-genre to put a different spin on, it has an extremely specific set of characteristics and a definite formula by which the songs must be written and presented. But this Perth six-piece shake things up like a James Bond vodka martini. The luminous presence of Shontay Snow, on both co-lead vocals and keys, gives this band a real point of difference. To the point where it's actually inappropriate to label them metalcore. This band exists in a zone of their own.
