3.0 out of 5 stars It won't grab you, July 31, 2005

This CD is a good metal release, but it's a little too typical for me. The kickoff song, album-titled "Nailwork", wasn't what I had expected from the band at all. This song is way too catchy, and it sounds like something straight off of the radio. Before I hit the stop button, as boring as that song was, the second track, "Blades to Laughter" halted my thoughts of using this CD as a frisbee. There were no commercial style breakdowns, no singalongs, and it was just short, straight and to the point.

Overall, yes, there are a whole bunch of singalong choruses, typical I-wannabee-swedish guitar solos, and a lot of other annoyances, but in the end, it's not all that bad of a CD. Very good drum work and screams... the lyrics lack so much, leaving this CD bare. It won't grab you, or you may even hate it, but I give it 3 stars...

Night In Gales plays Melodic Death Metal similiar to Dark Tranquillity . Which is welcomed by me,the problem is after hearing the melodic mixed with bland clean vocals,is a little to commerical for me, I would say skip Nailwork and spend your money on Night On Gales (Towards The Twilight)and you will understand me when I say Night In Gales has put in the most effort on Towards The Twilight.

Without a doubt Night in Gales stepped it up big time on their third release, "Nailwork". Myself being a fan of their previous works, Thunderbeast and Towards the Twilight, I was very anxious to hear their latest. Much to my surprise NIG have grown considerably in a short span. From opener, "Nailwork", which is arguably their finest track to date, clean vocals are prevalent as well as a bluesy, melodic power groove. The speed of their earlier releases is still there but the song structure is tighter and the hooks are hookier. Without a doubt if "How to a Eat a Scythe" doesn't get you swinging your head, maybe you should check out the new Limp Biskit.
