The impossibility of reason (CD)
The Impossibility of Reason is the debut Roadrunner full-length for Chimaira, a Cleveland sextet that likes to think of itself as advance scouts of the NWOAHM, or New Wave of American Heavy Metal, a metal movement to rival the British heavy metal onslaught that conquered the world in the 1980s. And while almost two decades of metal music have made a fully original sound almost impossible, Chimaira comes out of the gate with enough key of C attitude to turn heads and get them banging. Metalcore is the name of the game here, as vocalist Mark Hunter channels the anguish and anger of hardcore's solitary vocalists over the two-headed muted riffing of guitarists Matt DeVries and Rob Arnold and Andols Herrick's stuttering, impossibly fast double bass clapping. ~ Johnny Loftus
