Well guys my friend's band have finished their first album. You can
check out three of the tracks at

http://signmeto.roadrunnerrecords.com/ArtistPage.aspx?artistID=5adc92ba-1596-4d6a-b75b-3f44ecd84722

You can also go to http://www.myspace.com/sacraticus but the sound
quality on the roadrunner site is much better IMO. I'm very interested
in what you guys think of this stuff. Personally I feel it's pretty good
solid metal.

Holy crap that vocalist sounds like BtR-era Calvera. Brings back warm
fuzzy memories :)

I'm glad you like it, my friend Nate does the vocals and is the primary
songwriter and well primary everything in the band. I've gotten to hear
the evolution or his vocals and he has improved quite a bit.

I am waiting to hear any vocals. The music doesn't sound bad. I may
not enjoy the vocals as much as e. does.

This is fairly enjoyable. I didn't pull the chain after 30 seconds.

The style of vocals he does is not my personal favorite, but what I do
like about them is that he does it in a manner where it is easy to
understand the lyrics. Plus I feel the style does fit their music well.

The thing overall is fairly enjoyable. As e. says it sort brings
back some of the older days in feel. I like it.
And no one will be able to say "this isn't metal" when talking about
it.

Tom

Still listening to it.

I can dig it, it is certainly reminiscent of vintage 80's speed/thrash
metal, I think the gang in here would like it.
where are they from?

Yeah Nate is about six years younger than me which puts him at 25 and he
grew up with a steady diet of metallica, slayer, testament, death,
megadeth, etc. I told him those influences are fairly apparent in his
stuff IMO. I feel he has done a fairly good job of producing good modern
thrash ie stuff like the more recent exodus and testament.

He's in Cincinnati and I'm right across the border in southeastern
indiana which is basically a rural suburb of cincinnati.

Liked it. "Holocaust From the Sky" was kwite exceptional.
"Catastrophic Images" stuttered in places.
Overall.. my type of metal :)

Yeah I certainly like this. Wasn`t sure about the vocals at first but I
warmed to them the more I listened. Musically it`s great.

I'm glad they seem to be a hit here, now they just need to find a bass
player, which from what I hear is the bane of many bands.

Hm, I'm surprised to hear that anyone didn't like the vocals at
first.

They are easily my favorite part of the band.

It's not bad at all, the vocals I can take or leave, but that's just a
personal taste issue, however the music is pretty good.

I guess you could say I wavered a bit on the vocals the first song,
but as Ian, I warmed up to it.
