this is a thrash record with some death metal influences, really heavy and crushing, yet melodic and listenable. Some similarities to Nevermore are obvious, but this is not a poor copy of a great band, this is a great band doing great music on their own terms. Complex, hevy, melodic, check this out!

Most of the songs on Harmony of Lies are highly old-school thrash metal influenced, as traces of Overkill (particularly in the vocals) and Exodus are detected in their songcraft, but there is also a good dose of 90's US metal here. I had to think of Nevermore circa Dreaming Neon Black on "Bleed" and the ambitious album finale "Nothingheart". Starting with dark acoustic guitars that quickly transform into bone-crushing riffs with thrashy drum attacks, the former has great Warrel Dane type of singing by John Barr, who is otherwise more of a Chuck Billy meets Blitz kind of a vocalist. "Nothingheart" also contains some acoustic guitar in its intro but the tune develops into an outstanding piece with soaring guitar harmonies and angry vocals.
