Screaming Through the Fire: A Homegrown Metalcore Revelation

Ben Rankin’s All Is Well In Hell is less of a song and more of a statement—unfiltered, unapologetic, and emotionally charged from start to finish. This self-produced gem out of a home studio in Canberra proves that you don’t need a high-end setup to create something thunderously impactful. What Rankin delivers is a full-throttle metalcore anthem that’s both personal and painfully relatable.

The track wastes no time setting the tone. It erupts with gritty guitars and slamming drums, plunging listeners into a soundscape that feels both familiar and fiercely individual. Inspired by giants like The Devil Wears Prada and Asking Alexandria, Ben captures that golden era of 2010s post-hardcore, but injects it with his own venom and fire.

What makes All Is Well In Hell hit even harder is its honesty. It’s born from memories of fractured friendships and unresolved anger—the kind of feelings we all carry but rarely confront this openly. Ben doesn’t just vent; he transforms that fury into a controlled storm of crushing vocals and smartly crafted hooks.

With Levi Russell’s mastering finesse rounding out the mix, the track boasts surprising polish for a DIY release. Rankin isn’t just reliving the past here—he’s reclaiming it, track by track. This is one for the headphones, the mosh pit, or any night when the world feels a little too heavy.
