Album Review
It cannot be said about the German ACCESS DENIED that they have the trademark of originality in their own blood. A brief search only on Facebook reveals there are at least 7 other bands with the same name. Things are half bad; these are a bunch of nice guys eating their organic cereals each morning and who play an utterly unimaginative version of Electronic and Alternative Rock. It would be rather easy to classify them as another band out of many who play generic Alternative though they will surprise you, at times that is, with aspects of their songs bearing the sings that something deeper is in the essence of this band. The problem is that they did not pursue that versatility and inspiration at all costs for if they did the results wouldn’t be suffering of boredom and PORTISHEAD with hints of PRODIGY imitation. Presuming that they will not buy organic apples for their lunch the results of their next CD might sound better.
