Once in a very great while, an amazing new band raises its ugly head and makes you take notice. Single Bullet Theory is just such an act. Their unique brand of Swedish Style Death Metal bleeds both enthralling hook and aggression, making them even more exemplary in this style.
This Southwest American band has an extremely sharp, tempered ferocity. Intense, blasting guitars are smashed against intricate, Deathrash leads. Rhythms are powerful, perpetuating onslaughts of sublime chaos. The vocals mix intense growls, aggressive yells, and Judas Priest-style screams. And the finished product kills. Think Deathrock fused with Swedish Style Death Metal, with some subtle New Wave Of British Heavy Metal influences….
The best of these explosive cuts includes “Spit,” the furious barrage of “Route 666,” “Abduction,” “Murder Machine,” and the thunderous “Automatic Impulse.” Single Bullet Theory is unbelievably cool.
In conclusion, Single Bullet Theory burns a new path with “Route 666.” And it’s one hell of a great ride. Stay savage. Farewell.

Keep the faith, and the AGGRESSION. War.
