REVIEW: CAGED - DEAD END

 


CAGED - DEAD END (Meathook Recs. - 1999): A powerful recording from this band that mixes extreme hardcore with the most modern elements of heavy music. The CD opens witha n introduction Halloween movie´s style before getting in the first discharge, the song "Packed Fist". The music of this band brings me memories of certain elements of bands like Agnostic Front or the first D.R.I. together with more recent bands as Biohazard, Sepultura or Soulfly. The main characteristic of this band is the combination of the vocals of the singers, one with more growling screams and the other one more high pitched, there are also moments with clean vocals and a lot of screaming choruses. The producction of the CD is good, mainly in the drums that can be fully appreciated here, and also the bass. Maybe the guitars should be a little bit more in the front in the mix to give more impact to the music that is really good (in the beginning of "Sane" they can be more appreciated in the parts that they play in unison with the bass and drums) . Favorite tracks: "AIDS", "Hemorrhaging" and "Immortal". Contact: meathookrecords@mediaone.net o www.meathookrecords.com
