Spineshank: Rob Garcia (vocals, bass); Jonny Santos (vocals); Souren "Mike" Sarkisyan (guitar); Tommy Decker (drums, programming). "Smothered" was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance. This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files. Roadrunner Records continues to make a strong case for the longevity of nu-metal with SELF-DESTRUCTIVE PATTERN, Spineshank's third full-length. With a relentless, grooving brutality not unlike Pantera, and the industrial grind of Ministry, the Ozzfest veterans have upped the ante by injecting more clean vocals to their sound (perhaps taking a cue from bands such as Opeth and Disturbed). "Violent Mood Swings" and "Slavery" open the set with unforgiving intensity. "Smothered" and "Self-Destructive Pattern" boast some catchy vocal melodies and more mature song structures that could be compared to later-era Fates Warning. Crack producer GGGartH (Catherine Wheel, Downthesun) dials in sparkling crunch and sample-driven futuristic sheen, resulting in a very contemporary and polished production.   Compilation Appearances Freddy Vs.
