Starting in 1997,
Merendine Atomiche
released their first demo. But the year after, the band decided
to become a Metallica Tribute band. These influences are felt in
their latest release "The Holy Metal." They have gone
back to writing their own music. From the thrashing riffs to the
ballad breakdowns, these guys definitely have something going for
them. If they could get in a studio like Metallica has then these
guys would already be big. The way they write some of their songs,
its much like the way Metallica used to. The five songs on this
CD last for nearly thirty minutes, a good length to each song. This
is a young band, and they can only get better. Some of their members
are in their early twenties, and their rhythm guitarist is seventeen.
Don't let their age deter you from their musicianship. There are
some decent solos, and some really catchy riffs. All the songs on
the CD are solid, and none really stand out except for "The
Guardian," but it still is decent CD. Give these guys a couple
years and you may see them touring with some of the big metal bands
of the World.
