SAOSIN EMI (2006)
Pronounced Say-O-Sin before we go any further.
Californian post-hardcore with heavy guitar-pop leanings, and with seven million downloads on myspace alone before this, their debut album that's no mean feat.
For all the brutality, there's vocal and guitar harmonies too.
Opener 'It's Far Better To Learn' is crunchy, while later on there's a hint at Iron Maiden in some of the guitar work, in a punk fashion.
Heavy as mental one end, there's bursts of guitar-pop at the other too.
Should do well.
