BETZEFER / DOWN LOW

Israel isn’t exactly known for its Metal, is it but all this is about to change with the release of the bands debut for Roadrunner and a more fierce piece of Modern Rock you wont find this side of the new System Of A Down CD.

The band are self confessed Sepultura and Pantera fans and if your going to be influenced by anyone it may as well be by the best in the business. The guitars are razor sharp and the double bass drums would give anyone a pounding headache, add to this a vocalist who sounds a bit like Dez from Coal chamber at times and what you have is a winning combination. All the songs are as tight as the proverbial ducks rear the best of the bunch being "Fu**ing Rock N Roll, "Down Low" and the 6 and a half minute epic "Black Inside".

This puts Israel on the Metal Map at last, buy and enjoy.

TOTAL PLAYING TIME = 37 mins + 10 TRACKS
