Cassidy Scenario, The – Withstanding Voracity
The band has supposedly reached a level of passion and perfection that will launch them into the stratosphere, or so the accompanying writing says. ‘Withstanding Voracity’ with its fresh blend of Comeback Kid and Poison the Well can hardly be called prefect. The Austrian five-piece delivers a nice debut, but that’s about it, I’m afraid. They have their hearts, heads, and instruments at the right places, and have good, rather introverted, lyrics. This is just not the sort of hardcore to make it to a higher level, as it’s just not edgy enough, just not straightforward, and, well, just not original enough. Good start, but it’s not a vertical launch into outer space. Martijn Welzen
