No this is not a highschool boys' joke band. As I first thought when I saw the covers of this demo with the burning skull (with a fisherman's hat) and the bandmembers replaced with some kind of skeleton puppets. Anyway the music suprised me positively, cause I really didn't expect much - the covers being so "funny".

First of all the singer reminds me a lot of Max Cavalera from Sepultura/Soulfly. Otherwise the music is more tame than Sepultura or SF. There is still much influences from those American muthafuca-using-bands like Slipknot …without the death metallic approach. So no blastbeats or douple bassdrumming can be heard on this demo, just simple and shorth songs (a little too short – 4 songs and only 8 minutes of material) with groovy heavy metal riffing and somewhat angry vocals. The sounds are not too bad since this is recorded in a homestudio. Though, especially the drumsounds could use more kick. Altogether this is a very young band and has potential to growing up to be a good band if they just took a little more serious approach to their music. Song names like Hate and Respect have been done like a million times before. So more personality in the songwriting should come to play, mates!
