Taint

Taint  - Of South Wales
Something of an enigma. Many have striven to place their sound within a handy genre definition, only to find themselves wondering whether a band so dynamic and full of surprises can really be called 'sludge', or whether music so antithetical to boredom can justifiably be termed 'post-hardcore'. Taint's 2005 full-length debut for Rise Above, 'The Ruin Of Nova Roma' was a crafty beast that revelled in contructing such riddles for the listener and, of course, the critic. Pigeonholes are for pigeons, after all. It's the purpose of great rock groups to not quite fit in.
