The style of this band is probably the biggest hype in today's hardcore scene. You know...
Tragedy, From Ashes Rise etc etc. By some labelled as neocrust. It's
a good genre, but I'm getting a little sick of all bands playing pretty much the same shit.
Anyways, Bamn does it well. They have a good vocalist doing the screaming, the riffs
are good, solos are good. The use of Swedish lyrics on the B-side is nice as it makes them
stick out a bit against the crowd of foreign bands of this style. They use a banjo in
between two songs, something I find really cool. And the artwork is nice withouth getting
too artsy fartsy. The music has a feeling to it and the songs differs from one another. This
is actually really good, but I'm still a bit sick of this genre right now, which probably
lowers the grade a bit. The B-side is an older recording, and the sound is a bit rawer on
than side A, which fits well and sounds good. And I also think the songs are a bit better,
but it could also be the Swedish lyrics... Dunno... I just like it better.
