NAILDOWN – WORLD DOMINATION – SPINEFARM  
This album, generally speaking, pretty much bites. The music contained herein is spineless and lacklustre, formulaic and derivative, disposable and poser, interchangeable and forgettable.
There is little doubt that Naildown and World Domination will find much adoration were people to hear it, but this material is reserved for fans of acts like Soilwork, obviously Children Of Bodom, Imperanon and Amorphis – band adored not by heavy metal enthusiasts, but by teenage trendoids. The vocals play the scary scream/normal routine, there is a keyboardist in place and the riffs are very similar to all the aforementioned bands’ platitudes towards metal. Commercialism has gone awry when ‘metal’ comes across as lullaby put to distortion. This is derivative and very easy for Finns to put together. What a formula and how many times have we heard this? The band has one singer/guitarist, while some feeble mind called Jarmo dedicates himself full-time to the keyboards. Let us get serious now, shall we?
The only thing this band has nailed down is the Children Of Bodom wimpdom sound. This is formulaic goth rock from Finland destined straight for the delete bin. – Ali “The Metallian”
