Sinocence/No Gods, No Masters Vol 1/2013 CD Review


  Sinocence  are  a  band  from  Northern  Ireland  that  plays  a  very  melodic  form  of  heavy/thrash  metal  and  this  is  a  review  of  their  self  released  2013  album  "No Gods,  No  Masters  Vol.  1".

  Drums  range  from  slow,  mid  paced  to  fast  drumming  with  no  blast  beats  being  present  on  this  recording,  while  the  bass  playing  has  a  very  dark  tone  with  riffs  that  follow  the  riffing  that  are  coming  out  of  the  guitars  and  at  times  they h ave  a  very  powerful  sound  to t hem.

  Rhythm  guitars  range  from  slow,  mid  paced  to  fast  riffs  that  combine  thrash  with  melodic  metal  together  to  create  a  sound  of  their  own  along  with  some  clean  playing,  while  the  lead  guitars  are  very  melodic  sounding  metal  guitar  solos  and  leads,  as  for  the  acoustic  guitars  when  they  are  utilized  they  use  finger  picking  to  enhance  the  melodic  moments  of  this  recording.

  Vocals a re  all  clean  singing  melodic  metal  vocals,  while  the  lyrics  cover  dark  and  everyday  themes,  as  for  the  production  it  has  a  very  strong,  powerful,  heavy  and  professional  sound  for  being  a  self  released  recording  with  some  of  the  songs  being  long  and  epic  in  length  and  you  can  hear  all  of  the  musical  instruments  that  are  present  on t his  recording.

  In  my  opinion  Sinocence  are  a  very  great  sounding  hybrid  of  melodic  metal  and  light  thrash  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of  this  musical  genre,  you  should  check  out t his  band.  RECOMMENDED  TRACKS  INCLUDE  "Long Way  Down"  and  "West  Of  Eden".  RECOMMENDED  BUY.
