Kinetic Dissent was an American power , progressive, and thrash metal band from Atlanta , Georgia that formed in 1987 and split up around 1991.

history

The band was formed in 1987 and consisted of singer Dwight Bales, guitarists Stephen Danyo and Rick MacConnell, bassist Troy Stephens and drummer Ed Reimer. Their 1988 demo , called Controlled Reaction , came to Roadracer Records without any action on the part of the band . After the label had contacted them, the band submitted additional copies and recorded an additional, unofficial one with four new tracks. Roadracer was completely convinced and had the first and only album I Will Fight No More Forever recorded, which was released in 1991. After the band split up, guitarist Rick McConnell joined the band Eldritch Rite. The Kinetic Dissent members also formed a band called Deno of Thieves. The album was re-released in 2007 through Metal Mind Productions , limited to 2000 copies.

style

According to Robert Müller from Metal Hammer , the band played a mixture of Power, Progressive and Thrash Metal on I Will Fight No More Forever . In the Metal Hammer interview with Müller, Dwight Eales stated that he was not influenced by other bands. Instead, the album was heavily influenced by the film The Twelve Jurors : The name of the song 12 Angry Men refers to this film and is also its original title. I Will Fight No More Forever comes from the speech of the Indian chief Chief Joseph, with the original sound recordings of chief speeches being added to the text of the song.

Also thethrashmetalguide.com the album associated with the power, progressive and thrash metal and described the music as a mix of the music of Heir Apparent or Lethal and thrash metal.

For Chris Glaub ( Break Out ) it was musically a “mixture of power metal and progressive sounds” and “the textual concept [...] intellectually appealing, ethical and philosophical”.
