...With the Globe," reads the poster on the newspaper delivery truck. "Read J.J. Hunsecker." Hunsecker, the upper half of his face on the poster, seems already to be reading you. The flinty eyes behind those thick glasses stare out like Big Brother's; the film will soon reveal what sort of a big brother he is. Under the opening credits, Elmer Bernstein score blares confidently (though in truth it sounds like leavings from his terrific work on "The Man With the Golden Arm" two years before).

McComb shows off his ability to dynamically shift vocal tone, without stretching his overall range. His thick-throated melody is reminiscent of Creed’s Scott Stapp with a lot less Jesus and a lot more animosity, while his more aggressive growls and screams are akin to Pantera’s Phil Anselmo...
