Review: CD

Nameless Crime are an Italian quintet that recorded this album more than a year and a half, almost two years, ago – and originally it got released in 2010.
Musically it stinks – easy, predictable, over-produced, much too safe. Infantile stuff for metallic Pop-Rockers. Trying to mix Metal, Punk, Metal, Hardcore, Metal, Rock, Metal, Prog and more Metal (the latter balancing between Power, Heavy, Thrash and ‘just modern’ Metal), yet completely incoherent (funky bass lines, aggressive riffs, clean vocals, guitar-driven accelerations, Soundgarden versus Pantera, sudden atmospheric keyboards on a Thrash-foundation, sixties’ and seventies’ elements in addition to a modern basement and so on), or in short: what the f…?
I don’t get it. The band exists for more than a decade, they did release several minis and full albums before, and still they perform on this level???

50/100
