On the Metal Razor's Edge
Kryterium looks to its future
Boise-based metal band Kryterium plays adrenaline-pumped, aggressive, scream metal. The band makes no attempt at genre evangelism; its music is for the established metal lover.

Local CD review: Kryterium - CONTROL

Judged purely on brutality, it's tough to imagine many Boise bands topping the debut CD from Kryterium. It's the most vicious metal vibe ever committed to disc in the Treasure Valley.

Aside from peashooter gun sound effects at the start (get a sawed-off, dudes!), the entire album sounds like it wants to gnaw on your spleen. This metal is heavy. And precise. Every riff and drum beat has been Pro-Tooled to near-perfection.

Kryterium's relentless attack is fueled by thrash and death metal, but the group - which has roots in the Bay Area - seems content to ride the middle ground between those skull-splitting genres. The screamed, lung-hocking vocals are mostly indecipherable, but song titles such as "Eaten Alive" "Brand New Curse" and aggressive skin-peeler "I Killed the King" convey all you need to know. Guitar rhythms slash deliberately, like Norman Bates' kitchen knife: up and down, up and down READ MORE
