Sounds Like: "First up were Leicestershires own Method In Madness.The band, formed from the ruins of two local covers bands, describe their sound as metal mayhem from the bowels of Hinckley.A fairly intimidating description but in all honesty its one that is not too wide of the mark.The band belted out half an hours worth of crunching break neck speed metal with enough melody thrown in to give Method In Madness a broad appeal.Written By :- BBC Leicester's Richard Chamberlain "

" Method In Madness are a modern day Metallica !
They have thrashing guitars courtesy of Lee and Darren, a solid bass line which comes from Les, pounding and technical double bass driven drums from Ian and powerful vocals which will blow your mind.
The opening track on the Conformance Is Submission EP, So Alone, is their best track to date! It could be a number one single if it hit the charts.
With tracks like Nothing Ever Changes and Vengeance (I Shall Seek) they show there not just a thrash band, with Darrens vocal range which can go from James Hetfield to Howard Jones in a matter of seconds they have potential to be the next biggest UK band. Split vocals on Waiting For Fate, So Alone etc... show there not just a single vocalist band with Lee screaming/singing and Darrens lead vocals these tracks make up the best songs on the EP and give them a unique edge.I wouldnt be surprised if they become as big as Iron Maiden!John The Brutal Hobo Brutal Hobo Promotions"

............................Salvo Magazine Said :"Leicestershire's Method In Madness have come for your souls. The band were formed from two local covers bands and describe there current sound as 'metal mayhemfrom the bowels of Hinckley' and being perhaps subjected to the radiation from the nearby nuclear reactor has caused a genetic mutation.Lee, Darren, Les and Ian have suddenly become marauding metal mutants with a natural ability to write classic tunes. Striding Godzilla-like across the rock landscape this eight-legged beast is laying waste to towns and cities with destructive force! With confidence complex riffing, tempo changes galore and an incredible intense and passionate dual vocal assault, tunes like 'Solitude', 'World Within' and 'So Alone' will rock and shock fans of all heavy music genres.Make sure you catch 'em live and enjoy the jokes, headbanging, screaming, swearing and general foot-on-the-monitor full-steam-ahead pedal-to-the-metal moshpit mania,not to mention the humour of Lee saying 'thanks very much you've been agreat crowd, this one's called 'my fist your face'''Classic.

Surface Unsigned Festival Said:"Method in madness -
Leicester based foursome Method in Madness delivered a very tight performance of distinctive and interesting tracks. Their mix of crashing guitars, powerful and evocative vocals from Daz and Lee, and their kinetic stage presence makes their exit from the festival both surprising and unfortunate. A very exciting band with great potential, there can be no argument it would be great to hear from them again next year (12 March 07').
