The traditional metal instruments don't really do anything different from western metal, but it lays down a solid foundation for the eastern instruments, which add an interesting element.

The english lyrics were just as nu metal as I was expecting, though I'd say a touch uninspired. Change the city name and those lyrics could have been written and sang by that guy anywhere in the world. I could listen to the Indian lyrics with the metal backdrop any day, though, that was certainly interesting.

Definitely a toe tapper, a nice break from the almost exclusively European and American based bands that I typically listen to, even if it is nu metal in 2024. For me, folk metal is always a welcome addition.

On the Rineck Scale, I give it a 3 out of 4.

Damn, the start wasn't really something I personally like, but towards the end they did do some good stuff!
