Burn Without Me - Holy Blade Of Death (2009)



9.4

/Progressive metal, Grindcore, Crossover, Experimental metal, Technical metal/

Comment: Burn Without Me is the trio of Sydney Byron (bass guitar, effects), Kurt Allan (drums, samples, synths), and Seth Tracy (guitars, synths, programming) who are assisted by Dave Lanciani aka Dimaension X (guitars, synths, programming) in creation of this pleasing metal and grindcore and technical metal mixed album. More concretely, the group`s sophomore release is an instrumental one which takes on exactly measured rhythms which are covered with throbbing guitar riffs at times, massive washes of guitars and penetrating drums at times, however, embellished with funny spoken word samples, and crafty electronic glides now and then. The biggest shortage (which may be an advantage as well) is related to short-running tracks. Well-defined. Well accomplished. Great in any cases.
