Review: For my shame this is the first time listening to this band, although I've heard a lot of things on them. Well, I have a sort of restrain about the over-promoted commercial bands, but this time I was wrong. Ill Nino are harder than I thought, are much more powerful that it was told to me and the greatest thing to me, they have good ideas. The Spanish sung lyrics are a great thing too as insertions beside the English ones; I'm sure they'll have the wanted success. So, this Hispano band is a combination of all important nu-metal and hardcore power bands from the latest years: Slipknot, Linkin Park, Soulfly and others, with those ethnic influences and electro synth insertions from time to time. An album that I am highly recommending to any of you into the new groovy metal scene or into the old hardcore power movement.
