Burn Halo - Up From The Ashes
Posted on 10:50 by Unknown
Eighteen Visions frontman making another attempt at stardom with Burn Halo and honestly he's in a better band this time around. They still sound similar to his previous band but have a little better idea of what direction the bands sound is going to take. This was supposed to be more metal but it isn't really metal at all. It's more modern rock sounding than classic 80's in its aspirations. I don't hate the album but I can't say I'd listen to it regularly either. So really its a wash when it comes to Up From The Ashes. Some good ideas and some really cool aggressive sounding riffs and power chords but it all just sits stale lacking a huge hook laden chorus or a pop charm. Even a kick ass metal thump would have made some improvement but over and over it's all start/stop rhythms that never catch fire or pay off. I say pass on this album because there is better doing similar styled stuff.
