One Minute Science

Album Review

Coming from the U.K., Sunna's One Minute Silence disclosed a striking sound journey undulating amid unruffled rhythms and relentless blasts of guitar power. Dueling within these creation fields, Sunna are introduced as an able unit, reassuring spaces both for the mixing table, dominated by DJ Flatline, and for the rhythm domains, commanded by bassist Shane Goodwin and by drummer Richie Mills. The incisive force of the band's songs came from the heavy guitar riffs conferred by vocals main man Jon Harris and from Ian McLaren. "Power Struggle," the album's most noted track, reassured the team's demand to pursuit contentious sounds, fixing on a prevalent keyboards section and on caustic guitar strains. On the other hand, the following "I Miss" disclosed the band's lyrical intentions, focusing on dark and merciless atmospheres, materialized on demolishing sense scenarios vocalized by Harris. The whole album unveils a distorting journey dictated by the British squad, both on sensitive compositions and on frenzied efforts, like on "I'm Not Trading," the disc's opening track, and "Preoccupation." A vigorous and muscular rendezvous of melodies with abundant aggressive sets, Sunna's debut scoped profuse liaisons with industrial style and alternative metal, revealing a superlative entree for the British squad mongrel and puissant alternative creations.
