Zero Mentality – Black Rock


With every new release, this German outfit starts to sound catchier and more rocking than before. On “Black Rock” this becomes even more obvious as they incorporate even more singalong parts and slick leads than ever before. It’s still metallic hardcore at heart but ya know… kinda like how 18 Visions evolved. Some love it, others hate it. They did manage to record a diverse album with a semi-acoustic ballad, male and female vocals that tackle both English and German lyrics and there’s even a choir on here somewhere. Seems like they’ve got everything needed to make a compelling album, right?

Well, not quite… I just can’t seem to wrap my ears around vocalist Bend Fink’s accent which is downright terrible. I’m sorry… call me small-minded or hung up on details but it takes away a lot of the fun for me.
Score: 6 out of 10
