- I agree. Even without comparing them to the Nephs, Rubicon is at best
- mediocre. I found no originality in the music. The album reminded me
- of your generic hard rock/metal album except the guitars are a little
- better. The singer is quite pitiful in my opinion. He has no power in
- his voice. It's really a shame... they're a great bunch of musicians.
- I hope Carl does something better.
