Scarpoint, The Silence We Deserve

Despite being around for eight years already, Swedish metal band Scarpoint has finally released their debut full-length, The Silence We Deserve. The band was started by Henrik Englund (vocals) and Zoran Kukulj (lead guitar), and with the addition of Eric Holmberg (bass), Alexandor Nord (rhythm guitar), and Erik Thyselius (drums), the Swedish revolution was complete.

The album feels like a mixture of Fear Factory vocals and Sevendust riffs. On the positive side, the whole thing was produced by Daniel Bergstrand, who also jump-started such widely known bands as In Flames and Meshuggah, and Peter Gabriel from Lamb of God also gave a hand of inspiration in the making of the new CD. Songs of interest: “Disorder” and “Oblivion.”
