lol, not QUITE there yet, but it's a good start to their career. Their roots are a lot like Metallica's. Elektra isn't really that big a label and neither is Shadows Fall at this time. They're releasing one more album for this label, then moving onto bigger and better things... just hope they don't sell-out like Metallica did.
In all honesty though, we could be watching something special unfold, cherish it.
Their lyrics are short but incredibly powerful. Fair might be a little better served to scream a little less, but you know what? That's their sound, more power to 'em. Jonathan Donais and Matt... something are incredibly creative guitarists. Bittner is one of the best drummers out there, behind Danny Carey though.
You're right, Shadows Fall does sound A LOT like Metallica. I don't think they're stealing from them though. They have many that don't even sound remotely like Metallica. Although, Those Who Cannot Speak sounds eerily similar to To Live Is To Die...
Wow, Shadows Fall is staggeringly good.
1980's - Metallica 1990's - Pantera 2000's - Shadows Fall???
