Release Notes:
If you're enough of a mug to believe everything in
rock music presents to you, then along with thinking
that Dani Filth doesn't have to mow the lawn, or
that Cristina Scabbia has never taken a shit, you
may be listening under the terrible misapprehension
that 'emotion' is a byword of pain. That being
miserable is somehow a badge of honour, or that
crippling emotional problems are something to covet.
Not only are you terrifically wrong, but you're also
missing out on a huge piece of the picture. Not that
in fact, some of the best music has been written
while watching life go round the U-bend. But that
doesn't mean music full of optimism can't provide
just as much of a visceral kick in the pants.
With brutal staccato beatdowns, huge melodies and
the sort of hooks Ahab used to hunt Moby Dick
metal wheel. If you're a fan of the Killswitch
Engage school of mixing Pantera's sledgehammering
power with massive choruses, you'll already love
this. But what's so great here, and raises the album
above being just another metal album in 2006, is
that 36CF not only do it incredibly well, but they
do it with a passion and energy that shines. From
Brock Lindow's opening scream that kicks off 'I'll
Go Until My Heart Stops' to the acoustic 'The City
Ignites' that closes the album 11 tracks later,
there's nothing here that isn't bursting with
infectious, energetic enthusiasm.
Lyrically, Lindow may be dealing with frustration
and trouble, but there's an optimistic, positive
edge at work, one of looking forward rather than
wallowing, that makes them so much more palatable
than hollow moaning. And indeed, whether singing on
one of the albums highlights 'Midnight Swim' with
its brilliant, sky scraping chorus, or roaring along
with KSE's Howard Jones on the thunderous 'Elysium',
he sings them with zeal that only comes from those
who truly mean it. All of which turns what could be
a very good metalcore record, as heavy and melodic
as you could possibly want, into a truly magnificent
explosion of energy, passion and, that word again,
emotion- in the best possible meaning of the word.
