Restless Hearts
Rating
Style: Heavy Metal
Release date: 2008
 

JEMINEYE hails from Italy and started out as a MEGADETH cover band called Mechanix. Well... there are only 2 members in JEMINEYE and they have just released a 5 track demo called 'Restless Hearts'. Valentino Valenti is taking care of the vocals and Matteo Marano is responsible for the guitars, programming etc.

 

The first 2 songs "My Direction" and "Bite Your Pain" are quite good and Metallica and especially

Megadeth comes to mind. Not a bad start. They are slowing down on track 3 "Lust for Death" and somehow this melodic and atmospheric track seems to suit the singer's voice better.

 

Track 4 "Impossible Reality" is one of the strongest tracks on 'Restless Hearts' with its hypnotic riffs and a short but very melodic guitar solo. The last track "A Way For Tomorrow" doesn't do much for me but all in all I'm not disappointed with this 5 track demo.

 

I could have wished for a heavier production but let's see what they can come up with on their next release.

 

Check 'em out.
