Branching from modern alt-rock, electronic-shaped metalcore and cinematic orchestrals, Belgium’s Suasion is a rising name in the European metalcore scene. Their futuristic sound and high-end production level draws influences from synthwave and movie scores while creating an amalgam of their many influences. In between SKYND, Electric Callboy and Betraying The Martys, Suasion have come to create their own, outstanding pitch to the music scene. In times where one could think that everything has already been heard before, Suasion come up with a welcome innovation. Inspired by blockbusters like Interstellar and Dune, the band creates an atmospheric score-like ambiance that perfectly shows its face in the band’s strong visuals. Suasion’s music videos play an essential part in the band’s narrative and have already become a trademark in their overall aesthetic as the combination of all aspects that make Suasion what they are. “The Infinite” is a complex piece of work in which the music, lyrics, and videos match together to create a unique, full story that immerses people in one of our universes. Each song tells its own story inside the big narrative of the album, which continues in the band’s music videos that have become a trademark of the band’s integrity. Suasion’s „The Infinite“ could make for a thrilling blockbuster score with its electronic elements, enchanting vibes and film music approach. While “Astro” builds up on momentum, “Murphy’s Law”, feat. Florent Salfati, is the song reveal Suasion’s true face. Branching from industrial metal to modern metalcore, there’s djenty riffs and catchy vocals dancing with techcore synthies - Resulting in a danceability similar to Electric Callboy’s music. Still, there’s always an essence of “epicness” that perfectly find their way into techy breaks and electronic sounds. Narrating a journey, “Murphy’s Law” picks up with the reason that is misfortune, while “Infinite” draws attention to the goal of “The Infinite”’s concept. “The song is a message filled with hope and determination as we really want to shout the truth: if you want something, go get it.” This is where the proper story starts – a story with ups and downs like doubt and fear (“Transformation”) and challenges, found on the aggressive-sounding “Trapped”.
