Reviews list for One Second Thought - Self Inflicted (1999)

Self Inflicted

Self Inflicted is known as one of the cult albums deep in the underground metalcore/early deathcore mines. However, there's not much in common with what I'm used to when it comes to this style...

I mean, there are some moments to beat you into damnation, but I was hoping for more in this mix of Hatebreed-style metalcore and slight Crowbar-ish groove. Maybe a bit of experimentation from fellow New York-core band Candiria would've spiced things up, but nope, nothing like that here, other than a few audio samples. One track, "Step Back" is pretty good, but everything else is mediocre and boring (I hate using that latter word to describe anything metal). I got much better bands to access than this poor sh*t...

Favorites (only one for this album): "Step Back"
