Killing songs: Running Man
Raised Fist is back. After their MCD You're Not Like Me and
their full risft record Fuel, here comes Ignoring The Guidelines,
which can be described as another typical hardcore record. I guess fans
of hardcore will again appreciate this one, but as you know I am still
waiting something fresh out of the extreme metal scene (just listen
to The Forsacken Mnifest Of Hate - review coming soon - and you will
understand what I am meaning).
It is not a bad record, but for me this is a Machine Head hardcore
band, where the difference lies only in the vocals (they are much more
aggressive, quite logical for an hardcore band). The music is really
heavy, thrashy and even speedy on some parts, but Raised Fist is more
attracted by the punk style, as classical metal is less prominent and
seems to fade away on Ignoring The Guidlines.
If you like hardcore andcheck this one, but sorry guys there are many
better albums around these days.
Last but not least, isn't it short 27 minutes for a record?
