The heavy four-piece knows how to rock. They mix the old school metal of Megadeth with a more modern Soundgarden feel to create some intense angry noise.  Don't expect a collection of drop tuned three power chord songs with these guys, the aren't afraid to show their talent especially drummer  Marco Castro who pounds the skins mercilessly on all the tracks.  Vocalist Gerrick Phillips attacks the songs with a ferocious fervor in a style that encompasses Chris Cornell meets Layne Staley and at heavier moments includes a dash of Rob Zombie.  Overall, a great debut from a band that sounds like they wouldn't be caught dead at a shopping mall, in other words, this is a nice escape from the "Mall-Core" scene.
