This is the third demo from
the Swedish band Cardiac Arrest but it does not sound like a real demo. The
sound quality is very good but the band also states that it is the first time
they had the chance to work in a real professional studio (the EAR studio in
Uppsala together with Cark Wikman). Apart from this these guys also manage to
write some nice crunchy music somewhere inbetween death / thrash metal, blues
and stoner rock. Unfortunately there are a couple of things that bother me
here as well. Cardiac Arrest sounds way too much like modern day Entombed,
both considering the raw vocals and the music. Also, the lyrics are quite
boring and uninteresting (come on, "Bitch With A Whip"?) but that is far
from unusual. I very seldom find any metal lyrics interesting and I will never
judge a band based on this. The music is always the only thing that's
important. This demo shows a band with potential but they have to push their
limits in the future. I would like them to become a little tighter and more
intense. Their music just sounds a little too rigid and lifeless at the
moment. Not bad though, a very good demo that should be appreciated by fans of
stoner rock and newer
Entombed.
