Griffen - Linked in Eternity
Griffen is a Swedish hard rock/metal band that has two members that were in an appearantly legendary band called Torch. Don't know 'em, and in all honesty; after hearing this EP I really couldn't care less. At first it didn't sound all that bad. Just another good metal EP. After hearing it a couple of times more there were only two words that stuck in my mind; "fucking" and "boring". Put those two together and you get a nice idea of what I'm talking about. The reason that this review is this negative, is because you can clearly hear that these guys can do better!
All five songs on this EP sound pretty much the same as all songs by Dio, or other crap ass 80's bands. Only the rythym section is good. Guitars can do much better and the vocals are just uninspired.
No sigar and not even close! (so that's not even a chocolate sigarette for these guys)
