 Not a trendsetter, but definitely better than most.

(Man, why am I on a nu-metal kick for?)
From Zero wasn't the greatest or baddest nu-metal band out there, but they were pretty good. Behind the singer's goofy antics was some half-way decent songs with some memorable hooks in them. I'll still attest that the song "Check Ya" was probably their brightest and maybe best, but if you're a fan of early-2000's nu-metal, this is worth at least a few listens. |

 One Nation Under-Rated!

| I saw this band open for the Godsmack/Deftones show in New Orleans years ago, and I must say these guys were impressive. I bought their CD the next day, and I listened to it a lot, lol. This album was and still is a gem to be found, it's too bad these guys didn't get any mainstream with this album. If you happen to find this, check it out, it's one of the best nu-metal albums ever done, and well managed. |

| i wasnt expecting much from this cd given the fact it was cheap and i had never heard of them before. but i decided to buy it cause one song sounded good and im glad i did. the 1st 4 songs are pretty much the only good ones but for the money you cant go wrong. probably my favorite cd from a band i didnt know before. its worth the money |

The highlight songs - Check Ya, Erase, Other Side, Suffering, and Smack - will instantly captivate. The others may take a while to impress or may never impress you. However, if purchased just for these five standouts alone, it is well worth it (buy used and save cash!)
I am particular in my tastes and its hard to find cds I can groove to without feeling preached a certain message or lifestyle. Korn is too crazy, even though their riffs can be cool; Rap in general is completely narrow-focused on the thug life while rap metal can be the best if done right; melodic songs and slower ones are often too pop and gay to enjoy. However, From Zero has somehow melted all these styles (Korn's nu-metal chugging sonic ways, quick rap beats and melodic choruses) into something worthwhile. Artistic, yes. One-dimensional, NO.
I recommend THIS album if you are interested. From what I hear, their second album blows. So buy One Nation Under first. I bet you'll agree - these guys should have a much bigger following than they do.
Peace out, curtousy of WHO. |

Hidden gem of a disc

| It's astonishing this band hasn't taken off with a hulk of mainstream success. As far as nu-metal goes, From Zero has one of the better sounds in the genre's pantheon. Melodic singing, tight riffing, catchy song structures (check out the chorus on "Erase," or the infectious melody of "The Other Side")...this band has the necessary constituents for success. However, success has apparently eluded them while other inept bands garner all the attention. Then again, I'd rather pay less than ten bucks for this strong album than shell out almost eighteen for a Trapt CD. But don't take it from me; GET THIS DISC!!! |
