Well, just got this in from Earache. This band hails from the little retirement community of Reno, Nevada. I am surprised by the power of this band. Very heavy at times, with some great riffs that catch you and draw you in. If I had to be more specific, the band is a great mix of metal and the new generation of Hardcore. The drummer is probably the biggest stand out from this band. The guy just totally destroys that double bass. I still don't understand this new generation of bands with their off key, jazz riffs. I could understand if it was used here and there but every damn song just gets dull. I guess the new Hardcore generation is wanting to be more technical then the old school styles. I guess this would be called Technical Hardcore. Hmmmmmmm, well I would recommend this CD for fans of Dillenger, Converge and Botch.
