According to
the label Fony have been compared with bands like Tool, Soundgarden and
Jane's Addiction which made me understand right away that this would not be
the album of the year in my book. I was in for a little surprise though since
this debut release from the band isn't bad at all. Fony is a rather young
band that was formed in Surrey, Great Britain, in 1999 and now they have
signed with the Copro Records sublabel Casket Music. Even though I said a few
lines above that this album isn't bad at all I must say that this isn't
exactly a top list album for me. It is when the band indulge in more
aggressive vocals and razor-sharp riffs that they sound their best such as on
the second track "Nervegas Breakdown" and occasionally in most of the other
tracks. I am not very fond of their slower sections where the singer tries to
use a "clean" voice and sounds almost as bad as most other nu-metal wannabe
bands that the world is so full of today. Fony have introduced us to their
sound for the very first time and their debut release is a solid one that
should appeal to fans of modern heavy rock / metal. It doesn't do very much
for me but I must say it is highly enjoyable at
times.
