ROX NETWORK: EDDIE'S MINI REVIEWS 28 JUNE 2020
A very good album very much in the vain of Nightwish ,very tight and professional band who play together rather well.the vocalist has an amazing voice ,she uses it to full force on all of the tracks.there are no bad tracks on this album,the band show their full potential.all in all a brilliant album,well worth a listen. 9/10
Old school thrash makes a return,with a fuck you attitude.very much in the vain of true Bay Area thrash,from the heavy chug of the guitars,to the precise guitar solos.these make this album rather special .the voice ,the drums ,the bass there are no faults.put this album on you player and turn it up loud,you will not be disappointed. 10/10
A mini album with a lot of similarity to what is out on the scene now a days,if you like the grunt of a voice changing into a melodic chorus,this is for you.they have taken what is happening on the metal music scene at the moment,and have done it a bit better.very professional musicians,who can play their instruments well.the tracks are quite different and gives you an insight into what this band are capable of.would be interesting to listen to a full album,whether they can hack it or put fillers in.not a bad listen,they leave a big question mark good or not,that’s up to you . 6/10
Bloody hell these guys are fast,speed played at its very best.on this mini album from the first track to the last,the band go no less than 100 mph and give 100%.very accomplished speed metallers,with surprisingly very intricate solos.a great album ,cannot wait for a full album to be released.well done guys,you fucking rock. 9/10

albums Reviews June 01, 2020 ALBUM REVIEW: ROUGH GRIND - PIECES OF RESISTANCE Rough Grind "Pieces of Resistance" Out now in the usual ways via Inverse Records It's hard to believe, but this is Rough Grind's first full album! The Finland four-piece have released a polished and very impressive album of 10 non-stop rockers that any well-established band would be proud of. Describing themselves as "dark roasted rock", the band have created a hard-edged rock sound that fuses metal, rock, grunge and blues to great effect. From the fast paced metal fest of "Corporate God" to the album's straight-ahead rock n roller ending track of "Only Don't Fools Like Rock n Roll" (not sure if this was the right choice for the video as its a nice end song but doesn't show the band off as well) the band stretch their capable music muscles to produce a well-rounded and exceptionally catchy and rocking album. Never do they conform to modern production norms either. With lush effects and soundscapes and plenty of space in the mix this is well produced and professional. The dual guitar sound of Ville and Arg works well and the vocals of Sami (who also plays bass) is distinctive and has a retro vibe to it which just hints at modern vocal techniques. Refreshing. The standard song has to be "Corporate God" for me and there's only one song that is a little weaker than the others, third track "State of Play" which is a little off. Overall, this is an excellent debut album from a band that I'm sure will go far. Another feather in Finland's metal cap! 9/10 Roxy. roughgrindband.wixsite.com/rock |
