Launched in 2013, Amicus is an innovative, heavy rock trio from Chicago, IL. The band skillfully combines aggressive, melodic vocals with precise guitar work, impactful bass lines, and dynamic, biting drums. Their new EP, Collapsing Chemistry, demonstrates the uniquely modern sound that defines this promising three piece. "Every synapse is firing... in Chicago's alt-metal tradition, there's a new Chevelle in town: Amicus' constantly mutating guitar and drums accent powerful vocal hooks as visceral as they are memorable." "multitudinous guitar parts sounding like the how-to on how to write nuanced guitar music around pop convention" "Amicus recalls the memorable hooks of Breaking Benjamin, but manage to rock harder by flashing glimpses of metal-inspired vocal/drum/guitar that evoke the harsher elements of Sevendust."
