Broadjam Artist: Signal 30
Song: Hex
Reviewer: Love Like Suicide
Positive Comments: The song began in the tone of Love and Rockets “So Alive”.The background music is haunting and atmospheric setting the stage of a Halloween anthem.The singer demonstrates that sexy, soft yet raspy tone that the Divinyls is most well known for. In the middle break with her spoken word, she sounds a lot more powerful.This medium tempo track picks up in the chorus and proves to be more metal with the double kick drum.the guitar line is simplistic enough to appeal to the commercial listener and has a good distortion tone that musicians will appreciate.the tom work is impressive.
Constructive Comments: The recording quality isn’t that great, however, it takes a good band to shine through a bad mix. Some sounds just need to be mixed properly and polished in order to make this a radio-ready track. It fits into an obscure in-between genre of Metal. There is an older metal feel to it that spans everything from power metal to speed metal to gothic metal.
