San Marino is one of those tiny nations that most people aren’t even aware exists but yet it does, a tiny little enclave of only 61 square kilometers (24 square miles) and the 5th smallest country in the world but has history dating back to the year 1291 and considered one of the word’s oldest independent countries. Despite existing as a mere speck on the map near Rimini, Italy, even this nation loves to bang their heads so it’s no wonder that metal music is just as popular here as anywhere else however despite that fact, this small land of only 33,000 inhabitants hasn’t exactly produced a lot of metal acts with only a scant few like Necrofilia, Alessandro Arzilli and this band NOTHING INSIDE EYES existing.

This band is rather obscure as it only released this sole EP titled NOT READY ENOUGH TO DIE in 2004 and left little evidence of its existence except that the album is available to sample on YouTube. This four piece that on this album features Andrea 'Guise' Giardi (bass, backing vocals), Tommaso "Tommi" Verzini (vocals), Andrew “Sewy” Severi (guitar, backing vocals) and Thomas “Thom” Right (drums) emerged from the band Alchimia in 2012 delivers a mere 15 minutes and 10 seconds of brutal metalcore on its one and only release making this sole offering as brief as the nation from which they emerged is tiny.

Well honestly i hope these guys didn’t quit their day jobs because this slice of melodic metalcore is fairly standard although competent. No idea why these guys didn’t continue because they clearly had the talent to pull off a decent style of metalcore but for whatever reason disappeared into the ethers with no trace. Overall this is a bit generic and honestly the only reason at all i’m checking this out is simply because i’ve never heard any music from the tiny nation of San Marino however i wouldn’t say this one is anything to get excited about. It’s a generic representation of the style without adding any stamp of originality or surprises of any kind. So i guess the band was ready enough to die after all. RIP and great try.
