12 Tribute
Nonpoints debut statement gets in your
face the first second you push play and doesnt let go for the entire 12
tracks. Mixing the bone crushing riffs that put bands like Megadeth on
the map back in the 80s, with melodically aggressive vocals Nonpoint creates
what is indeed a album years ahead of their contemporaries. At times the
songs touch upon an almost psychedelic quality in vocal and wha-wha guitar
at others things turn downright funky. The sounds Nonpoint create just
might be called Acid-funk-thrash- Metal. But what really sets them aside
from other modern metal bands is the songs dont substitute melody for
aggression. Youll bang your head, but you may also find yourself screaming
along. Its good fun for the whole dysfunctional family!
Statement is one the best modern metal
albums to hit the streets in years.

Elias-Brandon, you should really hear their new cd Recoil, its awesome. They go back to more of their older sound instead of continuing to soften. Go buy it.

Even though nonpoint is f*CKIN awesome they're on their way to becoming the next incubus.... dont get me wrong incubus rules but they're not what they used to be.... Statement reminds of an album called S.C.I.E.N.C.E. ring a bell.... now look at them.....doesn't compare even though they're still my fav band... later

I understand not what is the point, non? Nirvana was better before they changed their name.

What a Day rules in concert and their bassist is soooo good.
Posted by Penis: i think that Picky is more than a little
retarded. Nonpoint is awesome, but he was right that "what a day" is awesome
Posted by
Picky Pricky: haha, nonpoint really sucks you guys,
their only good song is "what a day"

Disturbed: I've listened to the majority of metal,
hardcore and thrash rock bands ou there. Some bands have real talent, some
have mainstream appeal, but they all must bow to Nonpoint. These guys have
a message, just listen...

a deftony: This CD has gotta be the best to come
out in years, and there's a lot of bs out there. Elias's singing is killer
and so is Andy's guitar. Every element rocks on every song, especially
Doubled Stakked and The Tribute, which gives me the chills everytime I
hear it. Rock on Nonpoint!!!

by 66.6% of the world, this band just plain rocks.

cuzzin: nonpoint owns! mindtrip is one bad ass
song! great band great album!

deaTh_Gerbil: damn, this is the best album ive heard
in years. Every single song rocks (some of them in their own sort of disturbed
ways). The bass lines mixed with the guitars form a rhythem (is that spelled
right?)and sound that could almost be described as "concrete." that is
a good thing for those who are wondering. Orgullo definitely rocks a$$
(butt) but so does levels and doublestakked. Victim is probably the most
catchy, if u will and and mindtrip is just so hardcore. BUY THIS ALBUM
NOW!!

chamedaddy: I think Nonpoint should go on tour with
one of the more known bands like korn or limp bizkit so they can become
known. This is my favorite band and the tribute is my favorite song especially
when the time on the song gets to 2:52.

sabbath: Nonpoint F*CKIN RULES! To the p*ssy "speedy",

and can put out a fat sound if ya dont like them there is a part of my
anatomy you are welcome to lick.

Mars-MAN: If you don't like NonPoint, you're a reject.
This band's got it all, incl. the kitchen sink. Give 'em a try; you could
do much worse if you tried much harder . . .

The Pope: This CD hits you in the face when you
start playing it. Talent - they have plenty of it. The different paces
and sounds make this bands one of the best new bands out there. Lokk forward
to seeing them live!!!

MuDvAyNe: After the very first song I was completely
in love with this f**king CD, Anyone who doesn't like Nonpoint should look
for a quarter to buy a taste for music. This CD iz the Jamz -MuDvAyNe

Shorty: this is a great CD I look forward to hearing
them clean up the CD and for godsakes stop changing the pace and sounds
so much but overall a great CD.

Crdeath27: Very good cd. Not your typical hardcore
band that you'd expect to see these days. They're more of a blend of old
school metal and hardcore with a touch of something else I can't quite
put my finger on. Excellent CD.

Speedy: Nonpoint should be called nontalent. They
are one of the worst trendoid bands around. I can't believe you actually
liked this crap!
