Sinatras are a band from Italy that has been featured before in this zine and plays a mixture of death'n'roll and thrash metal and this is a review of their 2017 album 'Drowned" which was released by logic(il)logic Records.
Clean yet distorted playing along with classical guitars start off the album as well as some melodic vocals which also leads up to a heavier musical direction which is also very heavily influenced by thrash metal with some touches of modern rock and when the music speeds up a decent amount of blast beats can be heard.
All of the musical instruments on the recording have a very powerful sound to them and when guitar solos and leads are utilized they are done in a very melodic fashion and the songs also bring in a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts and they also add in a brief use of funk music samples and crowd noises and some tracks add in a small amount of spoken word parts while a later song adds in acoustic guitars and stringed instruments and there is only a few seconds of death metal growls.
On this recording Sinatras move way from the death'n'roll style of their previous release and create an album that is more of a mixture of melodic thrash and mainstream rock, the production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover real life themes.
In my opinion this is a decent sounding recording from Sinatras and while some death metal fans of their earlier material might not like the new style, I can see them winning fans of melodic thrash and mainstream rock. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Behind The Fire" "Burning Down" "Pull The Tail" and "Eat The Gun". 7 out of 10.
