CD Reviews

Fantastic Feel
L. Everitt | Washington, DC | 11/10/2000
(4 out of 5 stars)

"This band is NOT trying to be a Dream Theater clone. In fact, they sound NOTHING like Dream Theater. Nor do they claim any elite progressive credentials. What Digital Ruin does is play great power/prog metal with terrific feel. There are good, churning guitars here, an interesting keyboard approach that utilizes poppy, little electronic sounds to add a frenetic element to each song, and rhythm section that is slow, heavy and grooving. But what really makes this group is the vocalist. This guy is just a great SINGER. He reminds me very much of Joe Elliott from Def Leppard. He has that raspy voice and great feel like Joe used to have in the PYROMANIA era. He drags you into these songs one by one, making you feel almost drugged by the music. Nothing here seems outstanding on its face, but put it all together and you have an impressive album. The biggest soft spot of this disc is the production. The sound the engineers produced does not do justice to this band's talents. If you like metal with great feel and great grooves, get DWELLING IN THE OUT. There's no pretensions here, just solid music."
SCORE!!!

"This CD is awesome...I don't know what those other reviewers were smoking. I love this CD, I cherish it. I have been unable to find a copy until very recently(my friend found it at a garage sale). When I saw it here, I jumped for joy and bought it."
