Unexpected greatness is what amazes me the most, I.N.R.I (Insane Non-Commercialized Rock Institute) is a pummeling band with a raging offering, "Ultra Sonic Hatestorm", a potent piece of insane Death/Thrash Metal, a spine crusher wrapped with a classic scheme including rabid guitar solos, speedy drumming, catchy patterns and irregular paces that go along with the hostile throat assault?and this was the first time I listened to them.
Nostalgia is drowning your brain lately? This is the band that will punch that feeling in the crotch while using this album as a great plateau to launch their old-school sound to the rabid metal-head ears. The music is simply a hate filled assault that a bunch of insane Dutch men wrote while being on metallic uppers or something similar, it's just that crazy to tell you the truth.
Turns out I.N.R.I is a popular band in the Netherlands, they have a very interesting debut that most people worshiped actually. Then this album took 5 years in the making, it ended up being a damn fine return if you ask me; it's also a great way to magnetize new eager fanatics around the globe, what I mean is, if this is the first time you hear this band you'll be more than pleased that's for sure.
The songwriting is amazing; some songs temporarily go downhill due to the blast-beat abuse, but this band knows exactly what they are doing when it comes to structures, suddenly the songs change into a catchy breakdown or a melting guitar solo. Maybe the musicianship is not overly astonishing and maybe the vocals might sound mild at times, but the hyper-speed and the classic edges will make it up for it.
We have here a very promising band with a very good offer; if these guys don't wait that much for a follow-up and if they keep evolving their sound and songwriting, people will be eating their albums like fresh bread. Death/Thrash people, let's bang our heads!!
