Hailing from Texas, X-Nihilo is the newest band on Bombworks Records. Imagine a combination of some of the harder "core" bands on Solid State and then throw in some .rod laver or early Spoken and you're zeroing in on the X-Nihilo sound. It's heavy, aggressive rapcore with vocals that range from blood curdling screams to rapping to clean singing. Very nice packaging, good production, and Christ-centered lyrics round out a solid effort by these three guys and a gal. The style is not exactly my cup of tea, but rapcore fans would do very well to check this band out.
Editors' ratings — Doug 3/5, David 2/5
