Dead Club City Radio meets Dawn FM.....not that I'm complaining! A great addition to the album.
'Die About It' serves as a continuation of the good work from the band's previous album 'Dear Monsters'. There is a great deal of similarity in both their albums with Daniel “DL” Lasckiewicz at the helm, but there are signs of greater sonic experimentation with this album, no more apparent than on songs such as NDA with its gorgeous saxophone outro.
This album will appeal to existing die-hard fans who will be accustomed to the groovy choruses and heavy riffs, whilst also showing ... read more
The band has doubled down on its high octave, hard rocking sound and produced a standout record. It won't give you much chance to catch your breath, but that's fine, there's enough ear candy on display to forget that's a problem. Top 3 - Screamin' At The Sky, Who Are You Today?, Not Afraid.
A truly heartwarming, and emotionally captivating album. Although this record came from the loss of a band member, Dave and the group have curated something that represents the best of Foo Fighters, and once again demonstrates their ability to breed new life from a tragic event. Not only does this album make us proud as fans, Taylor would have been proud to hear this.
Could it of been heavier? Yes, but this is Nickelback. They know exactly what they're doing, and here we have another carefully curated 11 songs that will each resonate with a different demographic of fans. As a long-standing fan, this album doesn’t surprise me, but I’m quite happy to see the return of more tongue and cheek with songs like ‘Skinny Little Missy’.
Heavy, roaring riffs, and incredibly catchy. Chad mixes up his vocals to great effect - it won’t be to everyone’s taste, but after five years since Feed the Machine, I’m hopefully this heavier tone will carry through into their upcoming album.
Fresh, exciting and full of unexpected twists and turns - Planet Zero draws on the strengths that make Shinedown the powerhouse it is in the rock community, but equally pushes the band in a few quirky, different directions that I think add value to their overall discography.
After hearing the lead single 'Lifeline' I was a little anxious this new album wouldn't hold its own, nor would the band sound as good without Tommy but that's the last time I ever doubt this band. The production on this album is fantastic, the sound truly embodies what Bad Wolves stands for and encompasses everything a fan would want to hear. In particular, the riffs are fucking juicy and irresistible! I hope they play this album cover to cover when they next tour.
It’s hard not to be blown away by the creativity of The Weeknd. His use of synth elements, mixed in with his love of 80’s inspired music continues to work in perfect harmony. To compliment his sonic skills, his voice remains utterly incredible, and I stand by the fact that no other artist can get my hips moving in bed before the dawn arrives.
I never knew I needed a Brent Smith rendition of 'Rebel Yell' until now. A brilliant selection of covers and new content!
This album will define Shinedown, it showcases why hard rock, when done properly, can still pack a serious punch. I recommend any listener to go and play the deluxe version and listen to 'Son of Sam'. You'll thank me afterwards!
Any album with a hit single as brilliant as 'Cut the Cord' deserves top marks.
Whilst I can understand the argument this typifies the generic 'post grunge' sound, hearing Brent Smith's vocalise some very dark moments in his life adds a layer of depth to the album which I'm not sure many other bands can or have achieved.
This album has its moments, but after 'March of Progress' I found this to be more of a side-step than a step forward for Threshold. 'Watchtower on the Moon' was a particular highlight though.
I love this album, it's the culmination of all the great aspects which make a Threshold album.
