Ektomorf Album: “Destroy”

This cd is for all you hatebreed fans. If you are a fan of hatebreed you will more-then likely like this cd. No i'm not saying they sound like hatebreed but on songs like "Destroy" and "A.E.A." there guitar has the similar slow but brutal riff. You mix Hatebreed and soulfly you get Ektomorf.

I heard Ektomorf and I liked,really...they belong to the Sepultura/Soulfly school of metal,kind of etnic,kind of cultural...I mean,its not even the kind of sound i enjoy for real, but the true is that they sound good...good vocals,the guitars do their job,the drums are enough good,with some "surprises", and the whole album is well produced.

For those who came to hear Ektomorf expecting something Death,Grind or Doom... its pretty damn natural U dont like!

For The neo-metal fans...ist a nice choice

after listening to this i realized that ektomorf is better than soulfly .their lyrics are the best from what i have listened to.

the songs 'destroy','you are my shelter' and 'i know them' r just perfect

I bought this album with the impression it was a technical death metal album...unfortunately it is quite the opposite. This album has the nu-metal sound, but pretty harsh, and a bit more musical than most albums of the genre. There are some decent riffs, some interesting chants and the incorporation of some exotic instruments to break up the songs a little, perhaps add variety. But when I finish listening, I can't really remember anything that memorable. I think you'll like this if you are a Soulfly fan, which I am not, but if you are this may be worth your time. If you are like me and prefer the heavier side of things, this probably isn't your best choice... it gets 2 stars for effort, the chants, and reaching the level of musicianship past the usual nu-metal trash.

Ektomorf is a good band and they can be easly confused with soulfy to the untrained ear but in no way shape or form do they hold a candle to soulfy. As far as im concerned ektomorf is just a johnny come lately band. Max cavalera has been playing this type of music since he was with sepultura in the 80's. so when ektomorf gets a decade under their belt then they might have a chance. all in all if you mix the soulfly tribal sound with hatebreed vocals and and instruments you will get ektomorf
