Die No More come on sounding tattooed and muscular with that classic, beefy hard rock sound – plenty of chug to the guitars and a snarling bass.
The outro on ‘Conscious Indecision’ sounds a bit like Cameo’s ‘Word Up’, but, y’know, it kinda works and is better than Gun’s cover. ‘Council of War’ sees them come on in full Metallica mode, while on ‘Nightmares’ they come on in full Metallica mode, and… wait, I’m experiencing a strange sense of déjà écoute… It doesn’t help that the tempos are as identical as the sounds. Closer ‘Oblivious’ ups the tempo and fires off with a searing solo.
Original it ain’t, but as solid rock goes, it’s rock solid.
