mankind review from i-mockery:

Review: Factory 81 is a great band. They skillfully mix together Metal, hip-hop, and almost gospel like vocals. One second it will be calm, and almost put you in a melodic trance, and the next it will breakdown into hard-hitting metal or hip-hop.

One thing that I noticed about Factory 81, is that their guitars are very basic. I didn't notice it until having the CD for about 2 weeks, however, because where the guitars lack, the vocals exceed. Thus, masking the drawbacks of this CD.

I don't suggest buying this CD until you hear it. Go on Kazaa, or something like it, and download either "Nanu" or "14 Left". I like these 2 songs the most.
