Rarely does a band earn the acclaim from their first release to pave the way for their future after being together for only 4 years. Even rarer is it to find a band that can do so with everlasting passion and aggression. With their debut release ‘Keeping Nothing’, Australia’s fastest rising metal band ANTONAMASIA, have done just that.
Earning them billing alongside the biggest metal bands in the country such as the prestigious Metal for the Brain Festival and Metalstock and securing them exclusive supports with bands such as 10 Years (US), Leaves’ Eyes (SWE) and Atrocity (GER), ‘Keeping Nothing’ was received with open arms, rave reviews and 5/5 ratings in Drum Media and Blunt Magazine and on online publications including Sinister.com, dBmagazine.com and Fasterlouder.com.
With each review comes the vindicated spotlight of the band’s goth-iconic frontwoman, 20 year old Cassie Dallas. A vocal force second to none, Dallas delivers dark and intricate stories of love and desperation with a voice of ”sheer damn power”. That which can only be described as a perfect contradiction is the brutally heart-wrenching overtones of the rest of the band. Andrew ‘Baz’ Barrington, Chris King, Rage Carter and Justin 'Shinz' Gonzales pour their easily identifiable brand of epic beauty and power into each story, all of which is transferred to the stage in their frenzied chaos of emotion and energy that constantly leaves crowds entranced and bewildered.
Almost immediately after recording their debut release in January 2006 with 2 time ARIA nominated producer dw Norton (Superheist, Daysend, Vanden), ANTONAMASIA signed with esteemed Metal/Hard Rock label Faultline Records. Helmed by Norton, Faultline Records released a highly anticipated ‘Keeping Nothing’ in October 2006 which quickly elevated the band to towering heights. With immediate attention from Triple J’s Full Metal Racket and online radio stations such as Hard Rock Radio Live, ‘Keeping Nothing’ has seen high rotation since its release. The following month their debut effort saw the band among the top 5 at the 2006 Musicoz Awards when ”Asphyxiation Theory” was nominated in Best Metal/Hardcore category.
After 4 solid years of touring and sharing the stage with the biggest names in Australian metal and their 27 date 2006 Keeping Nothing Tour, ANTONAMASIA have, in a very short time, proven that they possess the talent and undying work ethic that will take them to the top and far beyond.

К сожалению, после двух прослушек, практически нечего выделить. Вроде бы и вокал на месте и мотивы, но всё какое-то модернизированное до ужаса. Кое-что с трудом выцепил:
6. Skin From Bones 7. Ghost I'm Meant To Be
И то под большим вопросом. До прошлых трех релизов этому очень далеко.
Пропустил все их релизы и начал с этого. Мне зашло. Слушается приятно. Ничего необычного, но в целом гуд за эти бабки. Отдам голос за:
2. the half-hearted anthem 3. they all talk about you 5. always with me 9. voila! 12. i don't remember who i am 13. curtain twitcher 14. i know you will write me off in the end
После первой прослушки хотел снести, но решил дать шанс и прогнал ещё раз и не пожалел. Есть действительно душевные треки да и в целом материал не плохой. Выделил для себя: 2. Come Spirit Come 3. Love, Death and Pixie Dust 9. Psycho Me 10. We Are We Are
Для меня этот альбом - их реабилитация после Bitter Truth По звуку альбом ближе к Open Door, но с учётом новых музыкантов и более поздних работ. Ну и все получилось. Откровенно проходных песен мы тут не наблюдаем. По сонграитерству тоже все прозрачно, первая половина явно писалась с товарищем Иорданом Фишем, а вторая - четко Эми Ли и Эмма Анзай вместе. Не смотря на то что вряд-ли его можно поставить в ряд с Fallen и тем же Open Door, и s/t работа была проделана колоссальная по звуку. Лучшие
