Panic Cell
What Doesn’t Kill Us (Renaissance)
by Scott Hefflon
Debut album from this UK metal five-piece. Got a tour lined up opening for Sevendust and Drowning Pool, and that seems about right. Not exceptionally death or doom or power metal, no duelling solos or heartbreaking emo vocals, and no pig grunt grind/death. Just battle-of-the-band metal, served straight, no frills.
