Title: Riff heavy and just plain heavy.
Product review: Ill Nino confuses me at times. Are they trying to be Sepultura? Or are they trying to come into their own as a thundering 6 piece orgy of anger and contempt? Honestly, I don't exactly know. Their music, heavily influenced with latin drums and dripping with pre-teen angst, does warrant a second listen. They are talented musicians, and it shows on each and every track, but the lyrical content of the album may leave some fans wanting. I noticed another reviewer quote "This new life has brought us this new knife" line from the disk's opening track, God save Us, and honestly, it does not get much deeper than that. However, those looking to feed their internal strife will find that this album will fill that spot in their collection quite nicely. Ill Nino shows promise, they just need to define what they want to be. Heavy and angry, or heavy, angry and lyrical.Standout TracksIf You Still Hate MeLiarRip Out Your EyesI am Loco
