Name In Vain are a hard rock band from America they
are influenced by the likes of Pantera, Metallica,
Black Sabbath, Godsmack and many other great metal
and rock and roll bands, Name In Vain are currently
in the studio working on their debut full length
studio album but in the mean time they are releasing
a short 4 track self titled EP to showcase their
music across the world.
The debut 4 track EP is actually a work of art,
its proper fist pounding metal that has really
big and beefy guitar riffs, solid drumming and
really brutal and powerful sounding vocals from
front man Matt Pelosi who seriously has the perfect
set of vocals to suit the band’s music.
The opening track ‘Persecuted’ is
without a doubt the best track on the album, its
hard hitting from start to finish featuring Pantera
style guitar riffs and really strong stand out
vocals that change from being quite gruff and
raw sounding in places to more upbeat and clear
in others.
‘Pitbull Wings’ is quite like the
opening track with the way that it features some
heavy instrumental work, but it’s the vocals
that are slightly different here in the way that
they come across quite melodic in Matt Pelosi’s
own little way, the song goes near silent just
after a minute in sounding like another song is
starting up but this isn’t the case instead
a slow and long instrumental piece takes over
until the song returns to its original sound and
pace running through until the end.
‘Back Down’ and ‘Crept’
is just as hard hitting as the other two songs
on the EP and just as listenable, making the EP
a truly good experience, if you like rock music
that features big meaty riffs, strong lead vocals
and an overall feel of brutal force then you are
going to love Name In Vain, the vocals from Matt
Pelosi is what does it for me and everything else
just falls in place around him and the production
is top nothc, I certainly can’t wait for
the bands full length debut album and even better,
to see the guys tour the UK.
4/5
