Dang.

After BE and Scarsick, Pain of Salvation has entered into the realm of (and I hate to say it) OVERRATED.

To those who say that you need to listen to an album a few times before reviewing it (I have listened to this twice now) I say this: I know what garbage looks like when I see it once, so I know what garbage sounds like when I hear it once. And Scarsick, is pure trash.

OK- so not all songs are that bad- but there are a few tracks that are enough to bring it ALL the way down.

Spitfall- horrid vocals- yeah "G"

America- bad music- HORRIBLE vocals. I don't want to listen to America bashing- or any heavy political song for the matter- that why I HATE System of a Down. Hey Daniel, maybe if you put a bit more positivity in your lyrics the songs would turn out better- and "Dr Phil and Diet Coke?" Geeze.

Disco Queen- a laugher. And this is what I mean by "laugher" POS is laughing because you and I gave them money for hearing 8 minutes of CRAP. Why? Why? Why??????? Maybe the worst song I have ever heard.

Flame to the Moth- badmusic, HORRID vocals. Very annoying.

And Enter Rain- the ever-so-famous last track we all enjoy from them- until now. This track is seriously boring, and not worth listening to a 3rd time in my opinion. Come to think of it- I don't know if ANY of the album is worth listening to AGAIN.

My main reason for this album being 1 star is this- this band has TALENT. I has low expectattions going into this and I found it was even worse than I imagined. Set up defeat -again. Bye bye POS- you are no longer one of my favorite bands. There is just too much good stuff out there. Scarsick = GARBAGE.
