Harmonic
Philm is somewhat of an odd super group (made up of Dave Lambardo of Slayer, Pancho Tomselli of WAR, and Gerry Nestler Civil Defiance) however listening to the album as a whole, you can definitely pick out influences from all three members. They mix elements of thrash, funk, stoner rock and even some post-hardcore. At their best moments they sound slightly like D.R.I. meets Helmet but overall it comes off sounding pretty dated, like ‘90s mosh metal with boring classic rock parts. Harmonic has its moments, just not enough of them. (Ipecac Recordings) Michael Wood
