Onesta are a four piece band from Paris in France,
they look like your average nu-metal band and the
cover of their brand new album 'We Got Game' leaves
you thinking even more that these guys have come
along on the scene 8 years to late as nu-metal is
not big, fun or cool anymore, but actually when
you put the Cd on you finally realise that Onesta
are not a nu-metal band but in fact are a hardcore
band who are influenced by bands such as Biohazard,
Madball and NYHC.
'We Got Game' is the latest album from Onesta
and it features 12 tracks and runs for just under
25 minutes, so if you can do the maths you will
realise that most of the tracks on the album run
for about 2minutes on average and before you know
it the album has finished and you are reaching
for the play button again so you can try a get
a true opinion of the album.
After listening to the album a few times over
I have gathered my opinion and find it quite an
enjoyable listen, Vocalist Stan, has a nice set
of shouty vocals that aren’t to raw sounding
but pack a hard punch neveraless, the guitar riffs
are aggressive whilst also managing to pack a
bit of groove into their overall sound, seriously
as far as fast aggressive guitar riffs come these
guys deserve 5 out of 5 especially during the
opening riffs of 'Line In Sight.
The instrumental work in 'We Got Game' really
can’t be faulted, Onesta seriously know
how to create a noise and make an impact at the
same time, there are many top tracks on the album
such as 'In Our Blood' Stans fast flowing vocals
and the additional backing vocals really make
the song come to life, I would personally love
a good moshing session to this song. 'Keep Your
Hands' off follows on from 'In Our Blood' sounding
quite similar, mainly due to the similar sounding
guitar riffs running through both songs.
If your big on hardcore music then you should
give Onesta a listen, they are not like your average
hardcore band they are heavy but nowhere near
as heavy as bands such as Biohazard or Madball,
Onesta are slightly different in the way that
you can tell these guys a mile off just by their
signature style of riffing.
3.5/5
