Should've Seen It Comin' Before--RealAudio   Think For Yourself

Tight, contained thrash, in the mold of classic Testament. Vocally we have a nice treat, as it's a blend between the caustic pipes of Chuck Billy and the soaring scales of Sanctuary-era Warrel Dane. Many solid tracks, with the only drawback (and it's a small one) being the sound of the bass drums--a bt too mechanical and "small" sounding. In all, some killer cuts on here.
All of "Etched Inside a Sorrowful Scream," "Dysfunctional," and the title track are good, and "Empty" is choppy and cutting.
A heavy chorus moves "Burn," with "Down the Drain" being one of the more thrashier selections.
"Should've Seen It Comin' Before" is a top highlight, as it is nasty, grooving, and driving throughout. A pure attitude stalk from start to finish! "Think For Yourself" comes in a close second, as it blends some powerful and neck-moving drive sections into its thrash base.
Watch for these guys to possibly get a big-label offer in the near future, as they are definitely deserving.
HOT CHOPS: Some great Warrel-like screeches in "Should've Seen It Comin' Before," as lead vocalist T.J. Berry proclaims, "I have seen the writings on the wall!..." Great stuff!!
