You could practically merge Kyla with both Hypothermia and Life Is Pain and not know the difference. Each band is drawn together by Kim Carlsson and each band is very similar to the next. There are some differences, but mostly, they sound exactly the same. I shouldn't complain because I genuinely do like both Hypothermia and Life Is Pain. The latter does happen to have a better sound though than Kyla manage to achieve on the debut full-length 'Glory Of Negativity'. The title itself is apt due to the fact that Kyla bask in the coldness of life quite openly.

Kyla's debut sounds particularly like the Veins era of Hypothermia. Though when I say 'era', I'm exaggerating due to the fact that the next album, which sounded different, was released not long after. Kyla, just like Hypothermia, create a buzzing effect through highly distorted guitars. This buzzing effect is pivotal to Kyla. It draws an atmosphere into the listeners mind and imprints it there forever. The lyrical themes need not exist. The idea of emptiness, cold and suicide is portrayed incredibly well through the music alone. Lyrics need not have a place here. Which is fortunate because I don't know what the lyrics are anyway. They bear no real relevance in the grand scheme of things. Kyla depict emotion through sheer persistence. Repetition becomes a regular occurrence for Kyla. Although many might be put off by this, it helps create that desired effect.

For me, Kyla aren't as good as Hypothermia, though they are very similar. The mere creation of Kyla seems to me like Kim is simply getting the most out of what status he gained through Hypothermia. This detracts from my opinion of Kyla. As well as the band seemingly jumping on the band wagon, as the saying goes, they lack the power that Hypothermia possesses. Hypothermia have an edge and a creative spark that flows throughout their music. It has the ability to draw attention to itself with ease, whereas Kyla are simply lacking in most departments. Glory Of Negativity is simply all the mediocre material that didn't make it on to a Hypothermia album.
