Kill The Thrill is a three-piece band from
France that the label wants to market as industrial metal. If you from this
description start associating to Ministry or Rammstein (which might be the
purpose) you are likely to get disappointed because this band is no way near
sounding like any of them. You should instead relate them to good old Nine
Inch Nails but also add a heavier and more traditional metal sound. The slow,
driving rhythms in their music could be compared to bands like Lacuna Coil and
The Gathering although the vocals are way below the standard of these two.
Nicolas Dick of Kill The Thrill changes between a raspy singing and a raspy
screaming voice and unfortunately I have to admit that neither his vocals nor
the music itself impresses me that much. There is nothing much happening on
this album and it feels like you´re listening to the same song over and over
again. Perhaps some gothic and industrial fans could find this cd interesting
but if you´re mostly into metal I doubt their sound would offer you any audial
pleasure. The music is not really that bad though. 203 Barriers is the kind of
album you wouldn´t notice being played until the final track ends and
everything is quiet again. It was recorded at the SPA Recording Studios (NY).
Finally, for those who love females in metal I just want to mention that the
band has a female bass player named Marylin
Tognolli.
