Full
Scale has Nu metal and modern hard rock written all over it. First
off, they are from Melbourne, Australia and they have similar traits
as Sevendust, POD, Disturbed, Stained, Papa Roach, Dope, System of
a Down. It’s quite a diverse sound for a Nu Metal influenced
band. The band works well together to create heavy metallic riffs
mixed with straightforward riffs without distortion; or calming riffs,
mostly during choruses. This self-titled album was produced by Jay
Baumgardner (Papa Roach, Sevendust, Helmet) and can explain some of
the similarities of the previously mentioned bands. Henceforth, this
CD has a commercial sound and a radio presence. However, one thing
I did notice was, it seems that they try to be more metal than they
really are, which also make them nothing out of the ordinary. Many
bands are on that metal/hard rock balance beam. I didn’t care
for the Nu metal rock ballads as much as the harder tracks. All they
need is some time for their song writing to mature. Though this is
not that bad. Rating: 74 |
