Newer band, discovered them from the Upload Thread. They've been around for maybe a year or so and they can't really be described in a specific genre IMO. The sound is definately largely Melodeath, but there is definately a large Thrash influence that can be heard in there. Instrumentally they are pretty sound and the lead guitarist is pretty good, the rythm guitar is quite solid too; however the vocalist (also lead guitar) is kind of weak. He alternates between clean and distorted vocals depending on the song, and while his growl is nothing special it isn't bad. His clean singing however is quite
shaky and it sounds like his voice is very weak and and almoost allways a bit off key. Overall good band though hope they go far. What do you guys think?

I love em. Also discovered them through the upload thread. I think their album is a solid album. Also describe them as melodic death metal. I kinda dig the singing, the growl is pretty cool too. But, I really like their riffs. They use a lot of single note harmonies which is cool. Definately Promised Land is one of my favourite tracks on that album. Definately encourage people to check them out.
