If someone had to roughly define this band's sound, "a heavy/thrash act" is the first answer that would come in mind, yet that's an insufficient description. You see, all those groovy riffs and vocals - sounding like Axl Rose trying to imitate Chuck Schuldiner, and vice versa - make the rock'n'roll element pretty evident. Besides, the band's name is a good hint in the first place, right? But what actually gives a different flavor to the music, a horror comic-like approach I'd say, are the guitar sounds used for the solos, as well as some spooky - and very clever - keyboard melodies placed throughout the album. And the good thing is that all these sounds fit perfectly into the picture! The compositional level of the album is very high indeed; it won't tire you even for a sec. And although you'll quickly realize that Freevil didn't release the record that will alter the face of metal music, they surely wrote 10 solid songs, packed with great riffs and a touch of their own. You pretty much know what to expect here, so take it or leave it!
