Neural Mass - Final Warning (2010)

 

The fifth and final album from this band from Canada.

The band was a duo with a lineup of drums, keyboards and vocals.

Three guests added bass, guitars, clarinet and saxophone.

Their last album, the 2006 album Opposite Control, was a pretty dire album. The music ranged from thrash metal to cinematic rock. All of it pretty poorly performed too.

Hence, I had no expectations to Final Warning, this one hour long follow up album.

The music here is mostly cinematic rock. The music is never straying into thrash metal..... thankfully.

There is a lot of samples here and the cinematic rock is a bit all over the place. It has also got some strong electronic prog influences too.

Most of the music here is decent enough and an improvement on Opposite Control. I am not won over and probably never will be.
