This is an Enhanced CD. Yes, a CD with music and a lot more things to see with your computer (really cool things). The music presented here is crude punk and hardcore with modern sound. With a vocalist that has a voice that sometimes is similar to the one of Zack de la Rocha (Rage Against the Machine) and guitars that sound really saturated, this band has also a side more melodic in the choruses (for example "Means To an End" (1:48)) and in the use in same places of clean guitars. But the main thing here is power that is what the songs contained here show, like on tracks with full speed like "Worst Case Scenario" (where the melody is played and singed over a thrash beat). Favorite tracks: "Worst Case Scenario", "For The Record" and "Still Believe, Part II". Contact: www.solidstaterecords.com
