Crime - Cold Air (CD)

The fourth CRIME alnum "Cold Air" simply rocks big time. The German band from the city of Geislingen successfully combines powerful riffs (Matze Ehrhardt) and rough vocals (Francis Soto). Mostly metal or hard rock but constantly melodic but also, where needed, slightly slower and almost emotional ("Dry Those Tears" or "Your Chance To Live Is Now"), that's how the fourteen tracks crawl out of the speakers. Very promising tracks to check out first are "Break Down The Walls", "Back On The Streets" and "Unchain My Soul" and they leave you all but cold. CRIME should be on your radar! (MS)
