KRYOBURN
"Three Years Eclipsed"
(Candlelight; 2011)
Reviewed by Mike SOS
After a five-year hiatus, New Mexico unit Kryoburn returns with their sophomore effort "Three Years Eclipsed."
This nine-track excursion blends superfluous arrays of Fear Factory’s industrial metal tendencies (“Reinvention”) with bursts of metallic polyrhythms and metalcore melodies, in turn creating a clinically heavy offering (“Slaughtered with Lies”) meticulously pieced together from the scraps from metal’s most advanced laboratories.
Serving a slew of dastardly keyboard enhanced modern metal derivations, this long awaited offering champions a synthetically induced crush that hits with all the right emphasis (“Season of Suicide”) yet stays too close to the template to gather a unique identity or render anything groundbreaking or fresh.

Rating Guide:
A classic. This record will kick your ass.
Killer. Not a classic but it will rock your world.
So-so. You've heard better.
Pretty bad. Might make a nice coaster.
Self explanatory. Just the sight of the cover makes you wanna hurl.
