Review of the Sentinel MCD in Attack fanzine:
This is a band that's hard to describe without making it sound very arty
and over-pretentious. They take the different styles of grind, emo,
hardcore, screamo, käng, and do it with power. On their debut 7" "Concrete
Locust" they switched between the styles, making it very interesting, while
they now have mixed them all together much more. But without loosing
anything in the surprise factor really. It can still be very moody with a
singer who talks more than he sings one second, just to evolve into full on
blast-beat grind with spitting anger in the next. Don't get scared off now,
but screamo-crust is actually describing this well. At least in my ears.
I'm sad to say it but I feel this band don't get the recognition they
deserve. Maybe it will change with this 4 track MCD (clocking in at 20
minutes) - at least I sure hope so.
