Don't Waste Your Time
by Unto Others
Brilliant mix of goth and old school heavy metal. Sisters of Mercy meets Iron Maiden. Features members previously from Spellcaster and one that's currently in Silver Talon. Highly recommended.

So I can't leave a long enough review to say everything I want. But I will say this, I love this EP. It's a great little follow up to times, and has just enough of a dynamic shift in sound to prove that Smoulder isn't a one trick pony with their first album's formula. This one really plays up the 70s prog aspects (DUST and Manilla Road influences definitely shine through even harder here). It's still Smoulder, don't get me wrong. Just a different side in some ways, all of which are good.
