The sound is big and there's lots of emotion and despair in the melodies. Burning the Prospect blast through three tracks of raging, d-beat crust on their side, taking influence from Wolfpack, Drop Dead, and His Hero Is Gone.

description: Two forces of nature converge in this split CD. Singapore's My Precious blasts through their three tracks, effortlessly pushing passion and love through their instruments. Their earlier sound of dark screamo is complemented by much more dynamic transitions. Gauge Means Nothing returns to the studio and records their best three songs to date. Their sound is much more rocking, practically dropping any remnant of metal they once held in their music. This CD gives me chills.

description: Italy is for lovers. Both Khere and Antithesis are great friends, they've been playing together in the Italian hardcore scene for many years. Each band offer one track each on this split vinyl. Khere offers a song which drastically changes their previous sound. Where before they had a slower, more Ebullition style sound, now they play very fast, almost emo-violent screamo. Definitely for fans of La Quiete and Ampere. Antithesis is on the other side with their crushingly heavy, dark hardcore. Fans of Reversal of Man take note.
