Patient Sixty-Seven’s latest single “Impaired,” featuring Left to Suffer’s Taylor Barber, is a masterclass in modern metalcore that hits like a sledgehammer to the chest. This track showcases the Perth-based outfit at their most visceral, pushing their sonic boundaries to create something truly special.

From the moment the song kicks in, it’s clear we’re witnessing Patient Sixty-Seven at their heaviest. The production is crisp yet maintains that essential rawness that lets every element breathe. Crushing riffs cascade into dynamic breakdowns that feel less like musical passages and more like controlled demolitions. The guitar work weaves between aggressive, palm-muted verses and soaring melodic sections that create an engaging contrast throughout the track.

The collaboration with Taylor Barber proves to be a match made in metalcore heaven. His vocal contributions add an extra layer of intensity to an already powerful song, particularly during the track’s most emotionally charged moments. The interplay between the vocal styles creates a compelling dialogue that perfectly serves the song’s themes of internal struggle and emotional warfare.
