Sanstone – Dystopia
Formed in 2006, these Birmingham upstarts are due to take the UK by storm with there debut EP "Dystopia" and this is why. From the brutal impact of "My Confession" to "Dystopia" the last of this 6 track EP captures your interest instantly with a barrage of technical riffing and marching brutality touched with many melodic tones, creates something for everyone's appeal. From hardcore fans, to the average metalhead will see and enjoy something in the sound of "Sanstone" this band is defiantly a force to be reckoned with.
With a strong heavy, technical backbone the guitars in this EP give an unrelenting brutality, while summarily the use of harmony between the rhythm guitars and the almost background noise of the many melodic solos, and many other nice touches on this EP giving this band a sound that is uniquely theirs.
There is shredding aplenty as well as many stunning melodic sessions, with thick blend of chunky riffs, mixed well with guitar discords and other technical touches that go down great sounding brilliantly well with rest of music without sounding generic in any way. Vocals are of a well suiting metal hardcore sound, giving a hard marching dormant feel.
The Drumming is talented and compliments the guitar perfectly but also adding its own little technical touches. Fills in some riffs help change the sound with out guitars changing key or rhythm. Bass in this EP helps give the heavy beat downs parts added edge and heaviness.
This exciting British act is certainly the one to watch in the near future, and really screams out that these guy are here to stay.An impressive talented piece of work, and great sound, undeniably worth a listen.
