In The Cage is a band composed of members that played in bands like Only Attitude Counts, Permanent Style, Bust the Chain, Bombsquad or Business As Usual. With these bands the guys from In The Cage are settled in the Austrian Hardcore/Metal scene for over a decade meanwhile! "Talk Is Cheap" combines riffs you know by Pantera with speed and energy of Hatebreed. The vocals of Roman "Empire" Graf are a mixture of growls and rap. 15 minutes and 43 seconds of Old-School Metalcore that leave a definite mark at the listener. The songs are not slow, but they have got nevertheless a nice groove. If you want it faster, listen to "Anger Inside", if you want a midtempo track,  listen to "Talk Is Cheap", if you want more bass and a guitar solo listen to "Break The Chain". The best situation for listen to this record is for having a beer in the backyard. (MC)
