Album Review
The Cast Pattern
Self-Titled (05.27.2008)

Rabies-infested canines having an uncontrollable flow of shit coming from their rear-ends would be more appealing to me than the sounds of The Cast Pattern. The talent in the band can be counted on a fingerless hand. Their debut album (which took nearly a year to complete) is one of the worst I have heard in my lifetime.
James Savage’s vocals are extremely inspiring: by listening to him you gain inspiration on exactly how NOT to sing! I got an instant, pounding headache while being tortured by his voice. That’s very difficult to do considering I listen to a constant flow of music at full blast for roughly nine hours a day! I understand that yes, he is indeed the vocalist of a band that indeed has a recording deal, but everyone makes mistakes.
Usually I attempt to locate a hint of something that at least gives me a small amount of satisfaction. Unfortunately there is not one positive aspect to this album. The instrumentation is awfully dull; the vocals are by far the worst I have heard in my life; and the album artwork sparks no interest.
The Cast Pattern took twenty-eight minutes of my life that I will never get back. I would not recommend this album to any of my fellow colleagues. [ END ]
