Composition

[edit | edit source]

According to AllMusic, Relief Through Release "is a solid testament to the capability of the nu-metal genre",[2] with Tairrie B's performance being compared to "a mixture of Courtney Love and Marilyn Manson".[2] The band's music was categorized as a "relentless assault on one's ears, musically sounding as raw and heavy as early Coal Chamber".[2]

Like its predecessor, Relief Through Release received mixed-to-positive reviews from critics.[citation needed] AllMusic called the album "a solid chunk of nu-metal sludge that goes a long way in proving that female-fronted groups can be just as unforgiving and brutal in this predominantly male genre."[2]
