This
album is certainly something different. Nothing Left
For Tomorrow meld traditional Death Metal with elements
of Thrash, vocalist Yasmina's dual vocal abilities
are definitely something that can set this band apart.
With heavy riffs, chugging bass lines and excellent
drumming, Nothing Left For Tomorrow have a great recipe
here to go a long way. Along with songs such as "Broken",
where Yasmina really shows off her range of vocal
abilities, there is clearly a lot more to come from
this band, and they have all the potential to unleash
it.
One
issue I do have with N.L.F.T is that whilst what they
do, they do very well; a lot of it has been done before.
With plenty of hooks, riffs, cuts and mosh-pit fillers,
N.L.F.T make the most of their Thrash roots which,
given the resurgence in Thrash Metal's popularity
over the last few years, could see them do very well.
'Nightbreed'
is a well-recorded, heavy album that provides a good
listen, but runs the risk, at times, of the tracks
blending in to each others. A solid debut from Canadian
Death/Thrash Metallers that shows a promising future,
definitely one to watch for in the coming year.
Album rating: 7/10
