Influenced by the top alterna-metal bands of the past few years (Jane's Addiction and Tool), along with the angry post-hardcore of Quicksand, Kansas City's Sacrifice Isaac rage with the best of them. On their second release, Migraine (the follow-up to 1995's debut Tough Row to How), Sacrifice Isaac shows that they are more straightforward in their musical approach than the above-mentioned bands, which is a plus since the group writes compelling rock. Instead of padding the songs with long, exploratory passages (like Tool does), their straight-to-the-point compositions stick in your head right away. Strong vocals (courtesy of W.C. Mitchell) and catchy guitar riffs (Paul Mitchell) are noticed throughout, as heard in the tracks "One Good Stick," "1,000 Years Worth," and "Figure It Out." But S.I. know when mix it up, "Nobody But Me" succeeds on melodic content rather than just grinding riffage, as does "Re-Count." And as with many alternative bands today, S.I. hides an unlisted bonus track after the album closer, "Hillbilly" (after a 10-minute break of silence). Sacrifice Isaac does an excellent job of injecting their own originality into their influences. ~ Greg Prato, Rovi
