Fresh blood from the Swedish stronghold of Death Metal: Gothenburg. But MIN[O]RA does not have anything to do with Death Metal. Not at all! Instead the deliver on their debut called Square One modern American metal in the vein of Korn, Puddle Of Mudd and companies. Everything is well-done wrapped into a typical Swedish way, you know, with a rougher edge. Altogether the guys range musically in midtempo fields, adding a more brutal and beamy note. Singing is mostly clean, bestowing a melancholic, straight and at the same time even commercial touch to Square One, but never losing its amount of aggression. Production is clean and powerful, all instruments stands equally. MIN[O]RA offers the perfect music for the American market and should establish themselves very fast – as long as the get an international deal on time to jump on the same bandwagon. But I do not really worry, Square One already shows a big amount of potential. Thumbs up!!!
