Amazing CD

"I work at a radio station doing a Metal show, and in my huble opinion this is easily one of the best new bands out there and one of the best new Metal CDs this year. The band is great in concert as well. They've recently rocked the house on tour with Type O Negative and been in Hit Parader and Metal Edge magazine. Despite this they're one of many bands that are less known than they should be. Their music is emotional, dark and well written. Some tracks are good radio singles and nu-metal sounding (Submission, Breathe, New Low and Mr. Doe), while others (Pottersfield and Blackened Dove) are well done ballads. If you're looking for something new in a stagnant music genre, check them out! Their new EP "Sick" is currently being released and if you have a chance, check it out, it's even better!"

One of the best bands you've never heard of

"Dust To Dust, underground hard rockers from Brooklyn, N.Y. This was their first release, and surprisingly, on a major label. This album has alot of different styles on it; Hard rock, Thrash, Melodic, even some techno elements. The only reason I even heard of them was because Sanctuary Records was contracted by the makers of Heavy Metal: Geomatrix (for Dreamcast) to use various songs by assorted artists from their label. Dust To Dust had three songs from this album used in the game, including the great thrash-ish style song "New Low". DTD was later dropped by Sanctuary Records because this band never made it above the underground level, but if you're into some underground hard rock, then look no further than Dust To Dust. The highlights of this album include New Low, Submission, Breathe (which is VERY mainstream-sounding), and No Surprise. Vocalist Rob Traynor does a good job of changing his voice to the point of making the band sound like it has two singers, one with a low gloomy voice, another with a more higher pitched, lighter voice. I recomend this album to anyone who's tired the crap the music plays on a daily basis."

"It's about time a band had the balls to break the cycle of rehashed band wagon rap that is out there. This album is heavy as hell and dark as they come. Well crafted songs, hooks galore. They have managed to bring a refreshing sound to the metal table, this is the alternative to the alternative. I've had the CD for two weeks now and I'de easily put it in my top ten of the year. Dust to Dust has managed to forge their own style and that is rare in this saturated market. All killer and no filler on this album, to bad that cant be said for most of the [stuff] out there! Pick it up and enjoy the experience!"
