E-Kaine delivers a raw, hard-hitting release with Original Sin that immediately grabs your attention. The themes of vengeance hit deep, and the lyrics resonate on a surprisingly personal level. Vocally, dude spits fast with incredible precision, but what truly sets him apart are his screams and his thoroughly impressive range of tones. Visually, the high-resolution cover art is super eye-catching and sets a fantastic atmosphere right out of the gate. My only real complaint lies in the audio production, which feels a bit too underground and DIY; a quality mix and some tasteful polish would have taken this track completely to the extreme. All in all, despite the gritty mix, it remains a super solid release that shows massive potential for this artists. Id keep an eye on him. Final score: 8/10 deducting a few points for the DIY mix.
