Inner Surge's unique blend of aggressive styling and thought-provoking
message makes them the exception to the rule. The groundbreaking "Signals
Screaming", is an 11 track assault on human rights abuses and the
end of the international "blind eye". The message is proof that Inner
Surge believes people can provoke change, and that there is still time
to do so.
Included on this release is "Retribution Song" which is
being featured on the Cabras
movie soundtrack.

JensMetalPage
says Inner Surge "have a pretty good sound to them, not muddy, drums
are clear and the vocals are not overpowered by the music." Steve Moore
has "soft almost singing type of vocals, then just explodes in their
choruses."
Inner Surge's Steve Moore and Bryan Sandau were recently interviewed
by Trendcrusher e-Zine. You can read the full transcript here.
"Signals Screaming" was rated an 8 out of 10 by MetalNetRadio.com.
Inner Surge was recently interviewed by TheSportsCritics.com. You
can check out the "e-nterview" here.
Absolute
Underground newspaper says that Signals Screaming is "a mishmash
of heavy rock, punk, hardcore, and rock. All in all they are different
and not pigeon holed into one genre and that's something refreshing."
Reviewer
Magazine says that Signals Screaming is "a hell of a heavy metal
juggernaut that grabs you by the throat at the beginning and takes you
away on a rockin’ metal journey beyond the fires of Hell."
Metal Core Fan Zine says "I was ready to dismiss this as another
one of those groove metal bands, but this band has so much more to offer.
Sure there is some groove to it, but the music is so emotional and the
vocal sucked me in and I really began to get into this. The music will
set you on a rollercoaster ride of metal and melody not to be missed."
You can find the review here.
BallBusterMusic.com
calls Signals Screaming "a rollercoaster ride of musical emotion.
Damn, this is an interesting release. It's sure to shake up your metal
collection if you can figure out where to put it. It goes from one extreme
to another and back again...it's amazing. It's got a great sound, excellent
musicianship and it's well worth checking out, especially if you're
in the mood for something different."
Alternative
Nation says "Inner Surge are certainly a lot more interesting than
any similar British act I’ve ever heard, with a fire in their bellies
that carries ragers like The Outcome off of the plastic and into your
skull where it beats your brain repeatedly again the bone of your head
space. A big thrashing racket with genuinely thoughtful lyrics about
the modern world—an unexpected treat."
CanadaNoise.com
says "Signals Screaming promises to be an essential contribution to
Canadian metal this year, the impact of its message and aggressive style
being sure to turn heads. Inner Surge’s music is a voice that screams
out to be heard, and a voice I would recommend listening to."
East Coast Romper says "This wholly intense metal offering is in
an ever-changing process of gritty anger, jazzy street beats, deep grooves
and vocal experimentations. Unlike many bands of this fabric, they didn’t
inject a screaming vocal as a way to increase the angst level either.
Instead, the gravely vocals accentuated the anxiety ridden vibe of the
music and helped to compress everything into a consumable, yet edgy
aural onslaught. This was by far one of the better releases to hit the
streets in 2006."
Mike Bell of The
Calgary Sun speaks with Steve Moore about Inner Surge, Signals Screaming
and politics in general.

are one of the best bands that are doing the rounds in Canada."
The Calgary Herald's Heath McCoy says "there is much on the horizon
for Inner Surge" in his 31 March 2006 interview with Steve Moore.
FFWD
Weekly says "pushing the boundaries and taking the fine art of headbanging to a higher artistic plane...is a testament to Inner Surge’s collective determination to end the "blind eye" syndrome that afflicts our privileged society. Signals Screaming delivers a genre-smashing one-two punch that carries over brilliantly to Inner Surge’s dynamic live performances."
