Negative Brody - Untitled 2 track EP.
Free handout at the recent Cancer Research charity gig so only fair
to review it even though they are nowhere near my normal cup of metal...plus
of course I've known the bass player for a while!
- CSM. Like the feedback opening leading into the
indie meets post-punk sounding riff. Sounds sludgy throughout and
the mix/mastering is poor. Flat chorus and altogether a very ordinary
song.
- Untold Abuse. Understated almost accoustic intro
precedes far more aggressive opening riff. Returns quickly to ballad/stripped
down mode with crisp, clear vocals. Have to wonder if this was recorded
at the same time and with the same engineer as the first track. Keep
you waiting for the song to unleash and worth the wait when it does.Quite
like this one and may well play it again in my mellower moments. Good
dynamics.
More mainstream listeners will like this. Not my cup of tea, but the second
track is ok. CSM needs reworking and/or remastering. Well played, just
not powerful enough for me I'm afraid.
