Karmic Wheel A strong rocking number this one combines elements of alternative and techno styles into a very catchy tune. The vocal arrangements on the chorus calls to mind Head East, while the music of that same section has some strong prog leanings. |
|
Wrecked Neo-classical elements start off this song in a very progish fashion. Once the intro dies out, the piece takes on the mode of a very satisfying hard rocker with unusual vocals. A very progish instrumental break shows more of those neo-classical elements reemerging. This is one of the pieces that really makes one think about including this band in the progressive rock category. |
|
Sick A textural and sedate intro makes a nicely sedate contrast to the previous cut. This piece almost has a Genesisish feel to it`s verses. The chorus, however, is far more rooted in Nine Inch Nails. The contrast of these styles is quite effective, making this a very quirky and energetic number. |
|
Once Upon A Time This pretty balladic piece is firmly rooted in classic rock traditions. The piece eventually takes on harder tones, but still in that balladic classic rock mode. |
|
Too Shy Metallic moments begin this cut, before dropping it into a more alternative rock format. The instrumental break shows strong neo-classical leanings, while other sections of the composition are almost driving metal. |
|
Nevermind This percussive alternative rock number shows definite progressive elements, and is quite strong. |
|
Hope Hope is a pretty rock ballad. |
|
Little Bitches Featuring a strong metallic intro, this is a quirky metal cut that even shows elements of classic Black Sabbath and modern Alice Cooper. |
|
Colorblind A strong poppish rock cut, this one is not a stand out, but quite competent, nonetheless. |
|
Darkest Hour Darkest Hour is a very dark and dramatic cut that is somewhat progish. This one is quite powerful and features a metallic chorus. |
|
Something Broken This one is a pop track in the classic mode of bands like Journey, but takes those styles to a very high level. The cut features quite progish moments. |
|
Busted A strong rocker in an alternative mode, the instrumental break shows strong prog leanings. |
|
Silent Scream A fast paced rocker, this one is very competent, but not exceptionally strong. |
|
Insides Out This is a strong ballad with `80`s techno textures and a vocal line calling to mind Journey and others of their ilk. |
|
Blissed Out An instrumental, this one features Queenish neo-classical leanings. |
|
Rejoice Showing tendencies of a kinder, gentler Nine Inch Nails, this is a strong rocker that features a quirky prog instrumental break. |
