The sound feels like stoner metal (i.e. Eye Hate God, High on Fire, ect.) meets thrashy punk. I am in absolute favor of this direction. I am completely into both genres. A lot of the drops were very good and pit worthy and I can totally see people looking for something new liking it. I also appreciate the not-so-overproduced feel. I personally think this is important when it comes to punk that punks listen to. My only real criticism is the vocals. The singer doesn&#8217;t have a bad voice, it just belongs in different music. A lot of times it fit, but, or lack of a better word, it was too &#8216;singy&#8217;. I would be listening to a song and starting to get into it and then BAM! the vocals. I feel this band has promise, but the vocalist needs to change his style a little and be rougher around the edges. More screaming, less singing.
