Sonic Syndicate are a MelodicDeathMetal and Main/{{Metalcore}} band from Falkenberg, Sweden. They formed in 2002 as Fallen Angels, a moniker that was eventually dropped three years later. The band started gaining significant momentum with thier second release ''[[NewSoundAlbum Only Inhuman]]'' and followed it up a year later with the similar-sounding ''Love and Other Disasters'' LP. After this the band fell on hard times: clean vocalist Roland left due to personal reasons and successor Nathan J. Biggs was hired. With Nathan came more than merely a new vocalist, there was namely pressure from their record label to [[ExecutiveMeddling adopt a more commercial sound]], the resulting album polarized the fans and eventually pushed Richard to quit the band.

Added DiffLines:

*SignatureStyle: The typical Sonic Syndicate track is a decent balance of Gothenburg-inspired melodeath sounds and pop-oriented metalcore. Verse-chorus structures are to be anticipated alongside abrasive and simultaneously energetic instrumentation. There also tends to be this dynamic where both clean and harsh vocals are utilized, not unlike any of the band's contemporaries.
