The
album soon settles down, as thrashing guitars and noisy vocals
give way to nifty grunge/NU metal with a hint of pop instrumentals
plus melancholic and philosophical lyrics. Prime examples
being ‘Simple Fact’ and ‘Hanging Around’,
the latter number capturing feelings of rejection and longing:
‘What you can’t know
now,
Is how I feel to know that you are going, that you are
going.’
There is more than a hint of Queens
Of The Stone Age in ‘Face
I Know’, as the pace picks up again with thundering
guitar riffs and angry vocals. This song adds to the variety
of the album and gives it some energy, thus ensuring that
whatever mood you are in be it a jump around the room energetic
one or a morbidly philosophical one; there is something for
you on this intriguing debut offering.
