NORM
REJECTION – Belligerent
Independent
Norm Rejection, a band originating from Malta, has
been active since 1993 and is considered a veteran within the metal scene.
After a lengthy hiatus of nearly eight years, during which they released the EP
"Malta not for Sale," the band re-emerged approximately three years
ago with new material. Their latest release, the EP titled
"Belligerent," continues to showcase their musical direction.
The "Belligerent" EP features three new
tracks—"Kemm Hawn Dwejjaq fil-Pajjiz," "Encounter," and
"Belligerent"—which exemplify the band's crossover style, blending
industrial, nu-metal, and modern thrash metal elements. In addition to these
new compositions, the EP includes a reissue of their 1994 debut demo,
"Subtly Mesmerized?," marking its first appearance on CD.
Musically, the EP presents a modern sound
characterized by clear and impactful production. The vocals are both clean and
aggressive, with tempos ranging from mid-paced to fast. The guitar work,
including both rhythm and solos, demonstrates technical proficiency and adds to
the dynamic nature of the release.
Overall, "Belligerent" offers a cohesive
listening experience for those interested in contemporary metal with a potent
sound and diverse stylistic influences. Fans of modern metal production and
energetic performances may find this release noteworthy.
