Poverty's No Crime has emerged from Germany to set
the standard for
progressive metal acts. With blindingly fast yet intricate
instrumentation
almost any song on this album would make a great sound
track for a hard core
car chase scene. Grinding axe work and well placed
keyboards bring this
band to the top of their genre. It left me saying
"Holy Crap this guy's
good on a guitar".
This music drives so hard and fast that I thought
I was going to get pulled
over just sitting on my couch. Perfectly mixed, it
comes off sounding like
it was recorded at a multi-million dollar studio.
Key Tracks: The Torture, From a Distance and Save
my Soul
