They remind me a bit of early A Static Lullaby, which is both good and bad. Good because ASL’s first Rue The Day – The Machine ‘The Machine’ is pretty much solely about the riffs. While the vocals are pretty good – they remind me a bit of Bullet For My Valentine or Trivium – RTD really stand out when it comes to shredding.

While it’s admirable the band are releasing this album for £3 in a card case, I can’t for the life of me work out why they then intend to fully release it to the world.
