This band is really amazing!! They are heavy as hell, but they have some rocking riffs. And also they have guitar melodies. And they have a combination of screaming vocals with extremely epic and powerful choruses (check the first track called "Invincibles"). There are extremely brutal parts but there are also melodies and arrangements through all the recording. But all the melodies here add power to the songs and don´t make them lighter (they are arrangements designed to hit the listener harder. The sound of this recording is extremely raw and I think that with a little more time in the studio this guys can make this better (or maybe they wanted this direct sound so the musci crushes you like a kick in your face). The three tracks on this Promo CD leaves you wanting more from this bestial band from Finland!!
Favorite tracks: The three
