Product Description

This experimental electro-grind duo is the end result of a sonic mind-meld of two Miami teenagers, Nabil Moo and Matt Mihana. These precocious teens sucked up every musical genre that crossed their path, from boy band pop to Timbaland electrobeat to grindcore. The result is one of the freshest sounds around. They became an overnight hit with their rock/screamo cover of Soulja Boy's "Crank Dat", which attracted over 50,000 plays per day on MySpace, then they caught the attention of Epitaph label owner Brett Gurewitz. Produced by Travis Richter of From First To Last. RIYL: Escape The Fate, Bless The Fall, Chiodos.

Customer Reviews

my daughter loves it!
well,it's actually a gift for my daughter,as she loves the band,what else can I say?

Good for the genre, but this band has some growing room.
This CD offers nothing specatacularly innovative to the indie-electronica screaming genre. Everything is done decently, the melodies stick, the screaming is well executed, the clean vocals are decent, and there is enough order in the chaos of electronic noises, guitar, and drums to showcase their inherent talent. Some of the songs on this album are brilliantly put together, with an almost orderless cacophony of synth sounds and screaming- flowingly seemlessly into a driving breakdown or catchy melody. On the other hand, some of the songs are wrought with such ridiculous lyrics and/or lack any kind of melody or cohesive sound, that they are worse than filler, they are worth deleting to avoid the annoyance of having to press a button to skip them everytime they come up, which you will.
This band shows great potential, but I can't, in good concious, give this album a higher review, when there are several tracks on this already short album, that are complete garbage.
This cd is worth the purchase price, and I expect, with their growing success, they will have a little more production value in their next album.

Finally Something Refreshing To A Scene That Was Sounding The Same
I stumbled across the name of this band online and became curious because it was such a outragious name. So I went to their myspace page and my ears heard something I hadn't heard in a long time, something different/original. I was first suprised that the band consisted of two members, and that alot of the sounds were programmed. So when I went to their myspace page, I just hit play on their music player and to my shock, the music was catchy, heavy, brutal, and even melodic. Now don't think this is another iwrestledabearonce, far from it. To me this band represents at times what a screamo band should sound like, catchy, emotional, and makes you wanna sing along, or scream. I grew up on poison the well so when I think screamo, alot of what is considered screamo today to me isn't. Now I set my friends on fire deliver's a screamo feel that I had forgotten about. For example the song, things that rhyme with orange has to be one of the best songs I have heard in a long time. Now they also deliver on bringing the heavy and grind, and even smack you with some breakdowns. This cd gives you everything and in the best jaw dropping way. They do not ruin any genre, and have impressed me very much. I can't wait to see what their next album sounds like.
