SCARSICK

This album is definitely a grower. I listened to it for the first time like two months ago and thought it was crap, like PoS went down really hard. But then picked it up again a few days ago and payed attention well to everything behind the music and....wow!

Each track begins to grow on you everytime you listen to it. Ok, not ALL the tracks, there are ones that i don't like very much like Mrs. Modern Mary and Scarsick (this track could be good if it lasted a little less).

Then, the concept in some songs is great, like a Spitfall that is the best F*** you to all the rappers on the mtv it's sang rapping. And, Disco Queen that hits the...well, prostitutes who sell in clubs, that take you on drugs, etc. its sang and played like a disco song with some heavy touchs. Then America, a song that hits that country and its played with a very american-ish style.

Kingdom of Loss and Cribcaged are the most beautiful songs on the album, with the best lyrics and a very emotional music background. Flame To The Moth is the heaviest and, yet, another of the best tracks. I love the line "I once had blue eyes, hungry and wise, now they are black from this dark age of lies."

Scarsick - 7/10, Spitfall - 9/10, Cribcaged - 10/10, America - 9.5/10, Disco Queen - 8/10, Kingdom Of Loss - 10/10, Mrs. Modern Mary - 4/10, Idiocracy - 6/10, Flame To The Moth - 10/10, Enter Rain - 6/10

Conclusion: I find this album truly progressive, with the band exploring new musical grounds, and i too think that this takes the word 'prog' in new directions too, standing on the edge of what is mainstream music, its a way to open minds to the new era of progressive rock.
