Ok guys, the cover artwork of Inertia is really, really bad and clichéd, and probably much distracting from the proper content of the record.
Even though that is still metal, it is the modern and sometimes even new metal-like sound that attracts attention.
LOSING SUN play alternative and hardcore influenced metal placing emphasis on atmosphere and quiet mid-tempo parts. These four British gents put a lot into the songs without overloading them. The first listening might be confusing but if you give Inertia more than just one or two spins one will discover a worthwhile jewel.
Singing reminds me a bit of The Deftones just as well as musical influences, not to forget some Tool leanings.
Inertia is exciting from the first to the last minute and offers possibilities to discover something new with every new spin. Great! 9 points! But … the cover artwork guys, the cover artwork is really bad ;)
