Woooooww!! How great is the beginning of this CD !! It is a burst of power that starts"The Glasspack Song"....full energy and power on this short instrumental song that is almost an anthem of this band!! The band plays extremely crushing and distorted rock!!! The vocals are strange sounding really dirty and sometimes screaming at the top of the lungs. What I like most is the combination of the guitars and bass sound that make a real wall of sound. And this is the main point that make the songs here so heavy and dense....this sort of sound mix is heavier than hell. But the band has also some more rocking side and they show it to the listener on every track. I feel some Saint Vitus and Black Sabbath influences here and there but the band has its own identity. Lovers of this doom heavy rock style will surely like this one. Favorite tracks: "The Glasspack Song", "Whiskey House", "Demolition Derby". Contact: www.smallstone.com
