Review From MetalReview.com:

"One of the coolest metal dudes I have ever met or interviewed was former Skinless vocalist Sherwood Webber - a large presence in a small frame. As much I liked Trample the Dead, Hurdle the Weak, From Sacrifice to Survival stands as their pinnacle. So once I found out this 5 track demo EP was the debut from his new project , I grabbed it immediately.

What we have here is basically a sound and style that was contained on From Sacrifice to Survival - that's to say grinding, slightly punk, burly, but polished groove filled but furious death metal with roots in Destroy the Opposition era Dying Fetus. The cast surrounding Webber including current and former members from Denver stalwarts Throcult, Deadspeak and DDC are all competent and on board with the sound resulting in death metal efforts that are as well done as anything any label released in the same style.

... the music blasts and lurches with a perfect mix of blast beats and huge grooves, being highlighted by the EP's title track and highlight, the monstrous closer "Abuse" - with a simply huge closing breakdown...

Webber's deceptive vocal power is on display for all five tracks making for a self released effort that blows away almost all self released efforts and is on par with anything on major labels. But with the sort of experience contained in this band and one of death metal's best front men back in the fray, what would you expect?

Look for this lot to arrive on a label soon or there's simply no smarts in underground metal labels anymore."

Originating from Denver, Colorado, ENEMY REIGN is a band that does not adhere to the restrictions of a closed minded genre. Not afraid to draw influence from Early 90’s Death Metal, late 80's Grindcore, East Coast Hardcore, and Bay Area Thrash, friends and fans have coined the term "metal for metalheads"

 

Enemy Reign is currently marketing their self-financed debut EP, Means to a Dead End, recorded by Dave Otero at Flatline Audio (CEPHALIC CARNAGE, MARTRIDEN, COBALT). Under the leadership of former SKINLESS vocalist Sherwood Webber, ENEMY REIGN successfully self-distributed the debut EP digipak through their own online web store (http://www.enemyreign.com), and many other digital distribution and traditional retail outlets.

 

In addition to Webber, ENEMY REIGN also features Andon Guenther, creative director, programmer, and co-creator of Sick Drummer Magazine. ENEMY REIGN has generated significant buzz gaining the support of international press and radio. While the band would emphatically agree that the Means To A Dead End is a great representation of what they are all about, it’s unanimous among the members that ENEMY REIGN must be seen live to fully experience the group in its domain. From the acrobatic feats of Webber, to undeniable stage presence and crowd participation, anything can (and usually does) happen.

 

In today’s turbulent times of music distribution, ENEMY REIGN are currently acting as their own record label but are using Means To A Dead End as a provocation to those interested in joining the fight. Looking forward, ENEMY REIGN plans to continue its homegrown marketing onslaught promoting the EP. The band will record their yet to be titled full length in 2009. With touring and major distribution on the horizon, it’s time to BRING THE REIGN.
