HEAVY! One word that can be used to describe the debut
release from Kinrick. "Sense Your Darkness" is the latest
Leviathan Records release and label guru David Chastain is to be
commended for assembling the 4 members of this band to record
this release. Vocalist Stephen Fredrick cut
his teeth on the first several Firewind releases and is joined
by former bandmate
Stian Krsitoffersen (Firewind, Pagan's Mind) on drums and by
bassist James Martin from Zanister.
From lead track "Code Of Honor" you are treated to some melodic
yet aggressive guitar riffage courtesy of Corbin King from
Vainglory. The break-neck pace continues on "Throughout
All Time" which sounds like it could have been a Chastain song
from the "Ruler Of The Wasteland" era. Fredrick and King
compliment each quite well trading thick riffs for strong-willed
vocals. "I Fight Alone" takes on a more deliberate pace
but still crushes with its heaviness. "Stand Up And Fight"
along with post of the songs on the album possess a relentless
attitude that is much different than most modern heavy metal
albums you hear. While they don't sound similar at all, it
is much the same attack that Prong employed. "The Empire
Falls Again" storms through the speakers will an incredible
intensity that is soon followed up by the slower, deliberate
closer "Sense Your Darkness".
While Kinrick does not possess the "heaviness" of a Slayer, they
do have such a heavy aura throughout "Sense Your Darkness" that
fans of different styles of metal may be lured in by their
intensity. The ominous tones of bad intent mixed with the
killer tandem of King and Fredrick make for a lethal debut
release.
