The Blueprint was formed in the year 2000 and
consists of former and current members of bands like Earthtone9, Pitchshifter
and Consumed. Magazines like Rocksound and Kerrang took notice of the band and
in 2002 they released their debut album "*Zero*Zero*One*". There are already
hundreds of bands who try to mix pop tunes, hardcore and aggressive metal but
The Blueprint still decided to give it a go. Signed to the British label Copro
Records they have now recorded this new mini album together with the world
famous producer Andy Sneap. The result is pretty good as they keep it melodic
or aggressive but as soon as the "clean" vocals are put to use it only
sounds annoying and all you wish for is that they could enlist a vocalist that
could actually sing for real. The music is certainly enjoyable at times and I
have no doubts about the instrumental skills within the band but the final
result is not much more than decent. Recommended only to fans of melodic and
aggressive metalcore. A little too monotonous and basic to really spark any
interest in me. Stand-out tracks: "Sans Chorus", "International House Of
Dirt".
