"Coming from Australia, it's hard to find anything decent in terms of rock and metal that isn't some crappy high school band. Coming from Brisbane this four piece have constructed an absolute masterpiece in their first recording. The sound is great. Produced to perfection but not overdone in terms of being manufactured (*coughs Avril Lavigne).The sound has obviously been influenced by many metal/alternative bands, and if you like them your sure to be 'Effected' as the moto goes. Sevendust, Deftones and Tool can all be heard in their music. ('Consequence' being the Tool influenced song and appears on their album not this recording). Clint is a stand out on vocals because unlike most newer metal bands he can actually sing and hold a note, Kurt churns out the riffage and no one can help but mosh in your own house to "Sweet & Low". The Butterfly Effect top it off with stop start riffs that actually work well with their sound on "The Cell", The Drumming is solid and you can hear Mike doing back up singing duties (i think) as well as Bass.I guess there are only two negatives to this EP and that is it tends to sound a little like the dreaded "nu-metal", although on the brighter side it only seems to have taken the better qualities and made them their own. The other downside to this EP is there are only 6 tracks...."
