Make Me Famous

Ukraine's Make Me Famous combines metalcore and emo in their music, which makes for an interesting contrast. The sweet vocals of Denis Shaforostov bounce off the cookie monster growls of Serj Kravchenko, and even though their foundation is post-hardcore, electronic programming adds a pop element to the metal bombast. In 2011, Shaforostov was making his name by singing covers on YouTube, and he recruited bassist Sergei Hohlov to help him make music of his own. Drummer Dusty Boles, guitarist Igor Yastrebov, and second vocalist Kravchenko joined the fold, and by spring of 2012, the group released its debut full-length, It's Now or Never.
