SEVERED - CD Review & invitation to crush!
The band Severed from New York City is a band that needs to be carefully watched by the heavy music fans. From the circle of bands that are exhaling from the New York tri-state area, Severed stands out because of their determination and flawless display of Metal Core! On their new self titled album, which was recorded and mixed by John Machado at Five Towns College. The Severed boys keep it crushing, fresh and senseful. In my opinion, a record that is way ahead of its time. And any record label out there that doesn't see this, is focused on the wrong musical ideals.
Severed is composed of Christian Geraldino on Vocals, Justin Whang & Shane Sorbello on Guitars, John Wiley on Bass and drummer Jorge Sosa. On their new self titled album, Severed takes the listener through a journey of crushing vocals cooked to perfection with a pefect blend of melodic ingredients. The lyrics are very well thought-out and Christian is easy to understand even when screaming his lungs out! The guitar work from Justin and Shane is crushlodic, they combine some heavy riffs with some harmonies a la Swedish Metal. And you can't forget about the rhythm section, both John and Jorge groove the hell out every song. The album contains nine songs that together make this a great record. How do I define a great record? When I spin it over and over again, without skipping a single song.
