While nu-metal was busy chasing American radio, they were pulling the genre somewhere darker and more interesting, threading math-rock tension through the down-tuned riffs and making it feel like a genuine artistic decision rather than a trend.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHi-Point originally surfaced in 2000 and got the reissue treatment in 2004, by which point the band had already proven they were operating on a different level to their contemporaries. If you were one of the people who actually paid attention to the UK alternative metal underground during that period, this EP is a document of a scene that deserved far more than it got. Essential context for anyone whose gateway into heavy music ran through Kerrang rather than the American charts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCD EP. UK origin.
