CANDY return with their new album, It's Inside You. A brazen take on hardcore, metal, and disparate electronics and experimental soundscapes, It's Inside You sees CANDY take another step forward with a compelling, extreme, and one-of-a-kind take on the genre. From the frenzied album opener "eXisTenZ", CANDY's intent is clear; It's Inside You kicks off as violently as possible. Cited as thriving in "this jumble of gothic industrial and digitized metal" by Pitchfork, the single minute, thirty-second track twists and turns as a contorted thesis statement for what will follow. Tracks like "Dehumanize Me" continue this trend, establishing an interplay between ferocious hardcore stomps helmed by guitarist Michael Quick, with pulse-pounding, electronic rhythms set against this monstrous riffing. "Dreams Less Sweet" crashes and bashes onto the record, while vocalist Zachary Quiram mourns the modern condition: "dreams laid dead/stuck grieving/how do you fight the feeling?/are we living in a world just to die?" Elsewhere on the record, tracks like "Love Like Snow" showcase a different side of the band. Electronic, mechanical melodies are set against desperate cries for human connection. It's Inside You flexes more than just muscular Hardcore brutality. "Dancing to the Infinite Beat" and "Hypercore" also see raw emotion laid bare against frenetic, electronic punishment before crescendoing into cathartic, ear-worm choruses. With It's Inside You, CANDY signals the future for what Hardcore, Metal, and Electronics can truly be.
Album tells the story of a metalhead Sat night: alone listening to bolt thrower, at the pub for a hardcore show, after party at a rave, waking up with the fear. Bloody fantastic.
Incredible album, metalcore enough to be tastefully catchy without getting annoying and death metal enough to be technically brutal as fuck and most importantly fucking HEAVY METAL as it should be played, as others have mentioned this popped up and the name/cover intrigued me, possibly one of the best pieces of music I’ve ever heard, share this people!
Слушая это свежее мясо, сразу вспоминаю французский Danforth. Граммотность исполнения впечатляет, вы знаете что где вставлять. Short-circuit вызывают мурашки по телу. Love like snow отличный эксперимент, после крепкой электроники ожидал мощный хардкор врыв - немного расстроился. Вы проделали хорошую работу, молодцы парни
Who did the artwork.?Please don't tell me it's another serial killer, because serial killers have provided more artwork for metal album covers than Dan Seagrave and Ed Repka combined...
It’s ok. It’s a decent album but not an album I wanted to hear from Candy. I was really hoping the hard lean into electronic was going to be more like Transcend to Wet, but they went the opposite direction. Party Hard and Booty Sweat, or whatever.
The vocals are terrible but the music is great,i guess a band like this feels obligated to have a vocalist screaming his ass off, it's no good and its ran it's course,its time to go back to clean vocals

When you click on an album because of its artwork and intriguing band name, and end up staying because the music is too damn good. Yeah this is it.

TRICK OR TREAT MUTHA PUCKS
Who is "Aaron Melnick"?
Original guitarist for Integrity
The GOAT of guitar
Clown Core make a metal album? Decent...
Now, just imagine what if Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden sang with Candy, interesting collaboration.
Lmao no
@@R.J.MacReady1982 Why does it have to be like this
@FELTSZ everything need to be iron maiden for you to enjoy it? Whack!
Like to jump in the pit
this band is in the running for the best band name that doesn't fit the music at all😂
the production is amazing. don't care much for the music itself, sorry
Liked the previous albums way way more.
It’s ok. It’s a decent album but not an album I wanted to hear from Candy. I was really hoping the hard lean into electronic was going to be more like Transcend to Wet, but they went the opposite direction. Party Hard and Booty Sweat, or whatever.

I thought those were bands…lulz
I thought those were bands…lulz
I thought I heard Atari Teenage Riot style …then I heard the ‘start the riot’ sample and waa like WTF?
Meh.
Maybe in 1999 this is interesting, in 2024 its meh.
