Kill Switch is one of the best albums out right now. Hard, melodic, nu metal comboed with a bit of raprock make this the ultimate album. The lead singers voice is amazing and the guitar riffs are so driving. They have great lyrics and the melodies are unparalled. I can't get these songs out of my head, especially Nothing Box and Lulliby. I bought a cd for myself and a friend off cdbaby and got this album for super cheap. It's one of the best deals around. If you are tired of hearing the same 20 songs over and over again on the radio like I am then you will find this album very refreshing. They kinda sound like Staind, Trapt, Linkin Park, Evanescence, Seether, Depswa, Metallica, 311 etc... you get the point. Great band hope to hear more from them.
Oh, and cool website and sicky music video!!!!!

I would like to share with you all one of my favorite Christmas presents this year.  You know what they say about how "the best presents come in small packages," well, this one sure did: a seven-song CD with a hidden bonus track, Kill Switch by Access Denied Music's recording artist Hypnogaja.  I promised you would be hearing more about this band after they grabbed my attention performing at the Rock The Toy Box IV benefit for Toys For Tots at Paladino’s. 
 
The CD opens with a song titled “Nothing Box,” and is short of "nothing but the best" melodic songs and soaring vocals by ShyBoy.  Once again Hypnogaja has my full attention, just as they did at their recent performance.  From the start you will be hypnotized by Hypnogaja, which I believe was their objective by the design of their CD packaging. 
 
I hear influences of 3 Doors Down, maybe even Eminem.  But "Need To Believe" (track #2) will leave you knowing this CD is radioworthy and one you will have to have.  “Home," track 3, that’s where a little rap comes into play, holding the edge of melodic rock that keeps this CD from heading into another genre of music.  
 
Every CD has its ballad and song #5, “The Spaceman,” is Hypnogaja's, raging with extreme vocals, then it’s back around to explosive with the song titled “Nowhere”-which keeps you wanting and a little more.  The last song on this CD is “Lullaby,” an orchestra of exploding drama.  A bonus track, song #8, is hidden, so don't count Hypnogaja as being over yet!  It may be titled "Nothing At All," but there's no mention of it on the packaging, and my guess is that's the way they wanted to wrap this CD up, saying “Nothing At All” about the last song.  Well-mastered and engineered, Kill Switch is one you should pick up, with its powerful vocals and high-quality musicianship.
