Live Gigs
Means To Collapse will be playing several concerts again this year. Come and see us.
Means To Collapse is a groove metal band from Braunschweig.
The four guys from Northern Germany understand this as groovy, melodic metal, with an orientation towards metalcore with a deep song mood, shouts / growls, complex guitar solos and acoustic parts.
The band has already released 3 EP's and the longplayer Shattered Sun.
Musically, it's difficult to categorize Means To Collapse as pure groove metal, as the songs range from fast progressive metal to the classic heavy mid-tempo neckbreaker to rock ballads like "Narcotic Insomnia".
One of the reasons why Means To Collapse is a popular support act for bands like Life Of Agony, Sheer Terror, Don Gatto, Unearth or Pyo Genesis.

Music
You can get our albums on CD or simply stream our music here:
The Prophet
"Your soul on the scale, you'll be sentenced for your sins"
Four songs that build on each other conceptually reflect the course of a life.
Over the course of the EP, it becomes clear what consequences our decisions have for our future and how everyone is responsible for their actions.
Harder and more melodic with a dash of necessary progressiveness.
Follow us on the last journey of a prophet.
Mixed and mastered again by Konstrukted Audio.
Shattered Sun
Shattered Sun is the band's first LP with 10 songs.
Mixed and mastered by Konstrukted Audio.
The sound has become much more modern and the songs more varied. However, they do not lack the usual heaviness.
"Shattered Sun is completely worth the 52:19 min through the composition and the arrangement and the general band sound..."
"Get in touch with the band via their homepage and buy this great album."

EP 2020
The second Means To Collapse album was produced entirely by the band themselves.
Once again, an album name was deliberately omitted and only the logo adorns the cover, as the music should stand for itself.
The album cover was painted with real colors and photographed.
This album is characterized by its progressiveness and its raw, not highly polished sound.
EP 2017
The band's first album in a new formation, with David on vocals, was released in 2017.
Mastered and mixed by Till Schleicher.
This is the first album on which Means To Collapse move away from deathcore and towards groove metal.
The original band logo is the only motif to adorn the otherwise completely black album cover.
Means To Collapse experiment with new guitar sounds and speeds on this EP. The 5 songs range from extremely fast to dark and heavy.
