Ninjaspy are a band from Canada that plays a mixture of metal, hardcore, experimental and ska with elements of death metal and this is a review of their self released 2007 album "Nature".
The album starts out with sound effects before going into a heavy direction that mixes hardcore and metal together with some aggressive vocals and you can also hear melody and ska elements in the music along with clean singing and spoken word samples and all of the musical instruments have a very powerful sound to them.
When the album goes into other songs more experimental and thrash elements are added into the music along with some death metal influences in the vocals as well as a small amount of blast beats and they also have traces of nu and groove metal in certain sections of the recording and after awhile acoustic guitars are added on a few tracks.
With this album Ninjaspy take the heaviness of death, nu and groove metal and mix it in with hardcore, experimental and ska to create a sound of their own which kind of reminds me of what Mr. bungle would sound like if they where more influenced by the extreme genres of metal.
Song lyrics cover humorous and everyday themes, while the production has a very strong, powerful, heavy and professional sound for being a self released recording where you can hear all of the musical instruments that are present on this album.
In my opinion Ninjaspy are a very decent sounding mixture of extreme metal, hardcore, experimental and ska and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Sub Artic-Trickery" "Pure Sketch" "Evolution of The Skid" and "Dot Calm Down". 7/5 out of 10.
