DARKSEED
GIVE ME LIGHT
ALBUM NUCLEAR BLAST RELEASE: MARCH 15, 1999 REVIEW: MAY 22, 1999

My prior experience of this band didn't make me hope for anything qualitative, although the expectations were much higher than they should've been. The main reason why I dislike this crap so utterly is the extremely poor vocalist; this fellow reminds me of Metallica's James Hetfield, but he is very far from Mr Hetfield's capability. One positive thing is the female vocals, but unfortunately you don't hear much of them. Regarding the music I just establish the fact that it's plain boring metal. The guitar riffs make me sick, although I can imagine that this might suit one metalhead or another.
