Break Me Down - The Noose (MUSIC VIDEO) Reaction/Review
As a YouTube critic, or even just a critic in general, you tend to get sent stuff for you to review. Whether this be an album, an EP, or even just a single, if your email is attached to what you do, you can expect an email or 20 from bands and PR companies wanting you to take a look at their stuff. This makes sense, afterall any kind of exposure is still exposure. In case you haven’t guessed yet, this the case for Metal Robot Reviews as well. While I’m not the only one, I can attest that I’ve been sent stuff before I actually started asking for them.
I bring this up, because it’s a fact of the industry, and it’s one that I welcome even more nowadays than ever. Whether for my gain or yours, I’m always open to listen and review your music to put up on YouTube or even here on the website. Same goes for the Italian band Break Me Down, who are an alternative metal band who is considered great for fans of Lacuna Coil, Crazy Town, and Vinnie Moore. While the band hasn’t made contact in regards to the request, their music video for “The Noose” was requested by a PR company they partnered with.
I decided to take a listen, as well as a watch, and react to the video and the music presented. To help with this, I called upon a friend of mine from college, Collin Sterling of Thrashers Paradise, to take a look at this as well. That video came out today (Nov 25) on the Metal Robot Reviews YouTube channel.
