The Plot in You was originally set up as a side project by post-hardcore outfit Before Their Eyes’ former guitarist/screamer-in-chief, Landon Tewers. Since their first EP, Wife Beater, in 2010, The Plot in You has snowballed into a fully-fledged metalcore mission, with two full length albums, First Born (2011) and Could You Watch Your Children Burn (2013).
The thing with The Plot in You is their name sounds like a fragment of what could be an interesting short story if it were provided in full. This births frustration and is pertinent to all metalcore, screamo, hardcore, post-pop-punk, whathaveyou bands. A Fire Inside what? Before Their Eyes What Happened? Why did you Kill the Prom Queen? What Trail of Dead/who were they/what did they do/why did this happen?
Like all these bands, The Plot in You hammer out some heavy tunes, which establish a blood bond with their screaming, bawling, circle pit moshing fans. But they are half-hearted storytellers. Not once in their between-songs banter did they explain in greater detail the plot, nor the second-person object, which left me feeling despondent and like going home and listening to the unambiguous Bay City Rollers.
