現メンバーとなって初の全国流通盤は、弾力性のあるリフが生むファットなグルーヴと、PIZZA OF DEATH発のハードコア勢にも通じるストイシズムを併せ持つメタルコア作品。重厚なブレイクダウンや苛烈な咆哮を交えて疾駆するというとことん筋肉質なスタイルを、CrossfaithやNUMBのメンバーが好アシスト。詩情を増した“See This Through”のアコースティック版やリンプのカヴァーなど、すべてが聴きどころの全7曲だ。
[English Translation]
The first nationally-distributed release in the latest members' formation of this metalcore band CRYSTAL LAKE, comes as a metalcore album that combines the fat groove born from springy riffs and the stoicism akin to the hardcore lot from the Japanese indies label, PIZZA OF DEATH label (known famously for being launched by Ken Yokoyama of Hi-STANDARD or BBQ CHICKENS). Heavy-hitting breakdowns and raging growls are mixed and tantivies, creating a gross muscular style, neatly supported by the members of Osaka-based metalcore band Crossfaith or hardcore band NUMB. Including the acoustic version of "See This Through" with its poetry beautifully enhanced or the cover of Limp Bizkit, each of all 7 tracks packed in the album delightfully happen to be well-deserving of good ear-attention.
