Modern/Alternative rock band Drown Incus recently
released their debut album, Latter Days.
Drown incus is yet another rock band that hails from overseas (these guys are
Swiss) and know how to perform hard rock that fans will enjoy. They have a
sound that is similar to some of the great modern rock bands of the day
(Breaking Benjamin, Creed, A Perfect Circle), but I also hear a lot of
progressive rock influences in their music (Queensyche particularly comes to
mind).
Drown Incus definitely leans toward the heavier side of
hard rock. Rock fans looking for something a little softer are not going to
turn this on. They also aren’t the loud, rock screaming, Swedish metal that has
been so popular as of late. Drown Incus is a much darker, moodier rock. All of
that add up to an enjoyable debut record.
If there is one drawback to be said about the band, it
would be the formulaic music and writing style. After three or four listens, a
couple of the songs started to sound repetitive and stale. That’s not to say
they are bad songs, they just started blending together after a few plays, which
had me putting the disc down for a couple of days before revisiting.
Overall, Drown Incus’ debut album Latter Days is a fun listen and an enjoyable record. Fans of modern
rock music will like the heavy style from these Swiss rockers. If you’re
looking for some new music to add to your IPOD, give this a band a chance.
