Less is a dark heavy rock band that would most likely
appeal to those who enjoy bands such as Alice In Chains,
Disturbed, A
Perfect Circle, System Of A Down, Tool,
etc. I’m actually quite surprised that they’re not played on the radio
or have videos on MTV. They have a big budget sound with a well produced
recording quality.
The music here is created with guitar, bass and drums. These instruments are played very well and show that the musicians in Less are indeed skilled. The singer has an appealing rock music voice and sings as well as shouts. Most of the songs are fairly aggressive with harsh guitar strumming and slamming drum beats. But there are also calmer moments to be found here as well. So there’s a good amount of variety offered throughout this recording.
While Less doesn’t really do anything new or different,
I like the fact that they’re not jumping on the so called "nu metal"
bandwagon just to become popular. Less is an honest rock band. They
set out to make solid rock music, and that’s exactly what they accomplish
on this album.
While I’ve pretty much given up on the entire commercial rock music scene due to so much cookie-cutter marketed crap, it’s nice to see rock bands like Less prove that there are still musicians out there who want to do their own thing without following any trends.
I expect Less to become rather popular in the near future. With a little more exposure, they could easily become one of the bigger rock bands of today.
