THR33 SIXT33N -
EX_NIHLO
WORDS BY LEE BARBER
It’s been quite the first tw3lv3 months for youngsters Thr33 Sixt33n. Less than one year since their debut show and they’ve thrusted and thrashed their way to the Metal 2 The Masses Stoke Final and dropped their debut EP Ex_Nihlo, picking up an impressive and loyal following along the way.
The passionate four piece are already showing signs of musicianship beyond their years, the calm, atmospheric opening to the record calling out to be on the sound track to a post apocalyptic feature film and building into a crashing crescendo.
Nihilistic boasts the energetic form which got them to the M2TM Final and will no doubt be setting them on the right path to finding themselves in the upper echelons of Stoke’s metal scene by the end of the year. Pins & N(33)dles displays just the kind of artistic isolation which recently saw the band join the Reaction Management roster, combining youthful angst and energy with precision melody and brutal lyricism.
