Kamikaze Test Pilots is a band that is heavily influenced by System of a Down, that's pretty clear as far as the sound goes. However, it's not just a rip-off version of this talented and renowned band. It actually sounds pretty impressive. More impressive than I had expected, that's for sure.
The guitar solos and variation in speed make Kamikaze Test Pilots (it's a self-titled album) an interesting album. The different tracks sound bouncy and fun, but still have this element that make Kamikaze Test Pilots a very coherent and high-quality band/album.

It's an album even pop or country fans might appreciate, since there's a bit of everything, without losing the true guitar sound. It's all very simple, but complex in its simplicity. This might sound strange, but when listening to this record, there's just no other way to describe it. Don't panic now! This is a good thing, to me at least.

All in all, this is a pretty interesting album, including all bandwidths of the rock/alternative/metal industry. Go for it and give Kamikaze Test Pilots a try!

80/100
