Heavy metal riffing and screaming hardcore vocals, does that
fit together? Actually it does
or at least with Burnt By The Sun from New
Jersey, USA, it does. Even though this is an
extremely short EP (only
slightly above 8½ minutes) it still is enough material to get to
know this
band rather well. I have never been much of a hardcore fan since these bands
often
lean towards the punk scene but this is luckily a band that is much
more metal than punk. The
hardcore vocals consists of nothing but pure
screaming and if you like this than I guess it's ok.
I can accept the vocals
of this band very quickly but I still think it would sound better
with more
traditional metal vocals of any kind. Burnt By The Sun consists of members
from
acts like Discordance Axis, Human Remains and Endeavor and if you're
into this scene you
probably know who these guys are but I have to admit that
I don't... As long as they don't
dive into their grinding frenzies of
chaotic mayhem this band has some very nice metal riffs
going on, especially
on the two first tracks while the latter two are perhaps a little too
simple
and hardcore-ish for my somewhat demanding taste. There is a lot of
aggression and energy
present on this recording though and the overall
impression is a good one.
