Darker Side Of Nonse
New York nu-metal quartet Dry Kill Logic spew anger out through every pore. Their debut album is the latest in a long line of nu-metal records that rests on the axis between violent, angst-ridden rock, and sample-ridden, mechanical metal grind. But beyond the nifty call-and-response opener, "Nightmare," Dry Kill Logic too often stray along a well-worn path; the likes of "Pain" and "Weight" pound out the lyrical clichés for all they're worth. It's only when Dry Kill Logic sound genuinely unhinged that they really come together, as on the wild-eyed "Rot," which nods toward the deranged hyper-metal of System of a Down, and on "Give Up, Give In, Lie Down," which recalls the bolt-tight dynamic of stunning British metal hopes Raging Speedhorn. That anger? Perhaps it's frustration, because Dry Kill Logic have almost turned out a great rock debut. --Louis Pattison
