Great blend of Metal! Will satisfy your palette with intense bone crunching rythms and excellent songwriting.
Metal at it's purest
The four piece Rising Pain out of Phoenix, Arizona, is obviously out to leave their mark in the straight forward metal community. Following up their first demo released in 2002, Useless Shell, Salvation For None proves itself to be a nicely polished and unique lesson in all out heaviness. What's refreshing about a band like Rising Pain is that they're doing now what bands like Sacred Reich have been trying to do for ages...create some highly imaginative and impressively distinct hard metal which borrows from several influences but settles on none. They have come up with a very tight, crisp sound with obvious inspirations from Metallica, Testament, and Slayer that can stand the test of time.
With no sound trying to out do the other, the most striking part of Salvation For None is the vocalist, Justin Bredvig. His vocals extend from a Testament meets Sepultura growl, to a droning Meliah Rage-like tone. His vocals are well complimented by some dominant bass, barrel-scraping guitar, and hellishly moody drumming. For fans of modern heavy-hitting metal with older influences should most certainly look into tracking this down.
