Violent Mercy
Alone
Reviewed by Bethany Reed
Just when you thought it was OK to assume the rap-metal trend was coming to a close, this Dallas / Fort Worth band squeezes their foot in the door. An effort soaked with radio-friendly riffs, but too many of them. Everytime I heard a hook I liked, they took it away and left me with the face of a game show contestant with a parting gift. A raw, working progress only sure to get better with every move they make.
