Written by: Brian CampbellNever Ending Conflict – One Slip Away
Never Ending Conflict’s six song One Slip Away EP presents a challenge to the listener - to try and find a passable song. Go ahead, you try it. This challenge is, in fact, impossible, because there aren’t any here. These are six of the better melodic hard rock tracks you’ve never heard from a Columbus, Ohio band that sounds as if they have both the tools and the intangibles to go places in this industry of ours.
Lead singer/bassist Dusty Ells leads the charge, fueling lofty melodies and hard hitting charges like “Unbroken” and “the Pain Inside” with his capable throat, and when coupled with the duel guitar eddies of Kory Michael and Luke Rausch, along with the relentless pounding of Tony Schmiesing behind the kit, it leads One Slip Away into the very good category.
The world needs more rock bands like Never Ending Conflict, those classified in the Breaking Benajmin/Sevendust mold, and it just so happens that Never Ending Conflict are here, ready to answer the call.
