Kickass Review of our upcoming album "Dethrone The Crown"
Band: Laugh At The Fakes (CA)
Genre: Heavy Metal
Label: Self-Release
Albumtitle: Dethrone The Crown
Duration: 49:14
Releasedate: 14.11.2014
This is a selfproduction of a band from Canada which probably nobody is aware of, are you?
After this album the publicity should change very quickly because what we have here now is well worth listening to.
It's a delightfully refreshing sound moving between the old Audrey Horne, a bit of Mastodon and moderated
Megadeth. Danko Jones shimmers through here and there and the lightly flair of NWOBHM hovers above all but
apart from that the guys are doing their own sound.
Fucking awesome guitars work magic rocking riffs beeing sometimes hardly shredding somtimes light-footed. But
above all the whole thing sounds smart and considered on their independence. That is why Laugh At The Fakes is in
contrast to the majority of bands in this days and age.
Everything sounds solid and isn't produced to be on the safe side. The vocalist also knows what he is doing and
creates awesome hooks with his pipes.
The guys can also play Prog-Rock-Metal ("Fighting Dirty") before reverting to Old-School-Metal. Laugh At The Fakes
wraps cleverly the whole music in their own style in such a way that it doesn't sound disjointed but rather sounds
simply harmonious as mentioned above. Anyway, the band performs many-faceted but doesn't overdo it so that
here isn't a mere collection of different styles but creating a album with recall value.
I can only repeat what the Canadians offer us here is refreshing. I have rarely heard such a well created piece of
music in the last few months. The music appreciates in value through intelligent riffs and inventive arrangements.
The sound has truly substance and that certain something that a good Rock-Metal-Album needs.
It is such an album that the more you listen to the better it gets. At least I felt so.
Conclusion:
One should keep an eye on this combo. I wish them success and I hope we will listen to more music of Laugh At The
Fakes in future because they could set the world on fire. Next time they get the fully 10 but for know we should
beware of praising them too high, hahaha!
Rating 9/10
