Fear Factory, Pissing Razors, Machine Head,
Slipknot, Meshuggah, all comes to mind while listening to Kryoburn’s
“Enigmatic Existence.” Produced by Eddie Garcia of Pissing
Razors, this is their debut album filled with mechanically heavy riffs.
There are short, heavy, catchy riffs; precise beats; and down-tuned,
robotic-like riffs, similar to Fear Factory. They even have some melodic
choruses like Fear Factory. There is a band called Boiled Kilt from
Germany that is probably the best comparison for Kryoburn. However,
these guys have escaped from Carlsbad, New Mexico and every song on
their new album shows this band’s potential. It’s a great
start. They know how to created catchy riffs and are pretty tight.
How could you not like the heavy riffs on this album? The only real
negative things I heard were the electronic beats may have been over
used a few times. But they are usually surrounded by energy filled
riffs. The electronic beats and sound effects create an eerie atmosphere
that doesn’t always work. Also, the vocal harmonies are off
a few times, they need to work on them. Anyhow…this is a great
disc to listen to when you’re pissed! Just make sure you don’t
go after any pedestrians when you are listening to Kyroburn in your
car. Rating: 87 |
