Picking out what Index
Case sounds like on their self-titled debut is kind of difficult.
Bands like the Deftones, Linkin’ Park, Anathema, Tool, A Perfect
Circle, and Chevelle all come to mind in one way or another. But
they really don’t sound like any of those bands, just elements
will remind you of them. They do switch from calm tones to an aggressive
ones like the Deftones, get grooves going like Anathema, and songs
have a similar feel to Tool and A Perfect Circle. In whatever way
you put it; they know how to write appealing tracks…you may
find yourself enveloped in a trance. I guess I can say that I’m
not disappointed in any of their songs, just about everything is
appealing in one way or another. This band from Des Moines, Iowa
has their first single on this CD with their song “Deserver”
and it’s to be their first video as well. Also, the first
track on this disc, “Listen”, was on the Texas Chainsaw
Massacre soundtrack and Ultimate Fighting. They can thank Soil’s
bassist Tim King for signing the band to Mortal Music and getting
them exposure like that. As well as having James “Jimbo”
Barton (Matchbox 20, Eric Clapton, Rush) to do the album production
for this disc. Even if you don’t listen to those types of
bands, judging by the caliper of them, you can tell there are no
production problems. Looking forward for more from this band in
the future.
