Music Review
You may or may not have heard the recent buzz and whispers of the name BlackFront Ink... It's more than likely because they're HOT! Their sound is on fire and original!
Love Lane Staley? Then you'll love Kenny Black! Powerhouse vocals from a pint sized dude.
Love +Dope+? Then you'll love Geoff Timmer! Hard hitting, heavy beats from the Drum thumping dynamo.
How about Metallica, Does anyone love Metallica? Then you'll Love Jeff Moorman! Riffs to rival Kirk Hammett.
Each member brings a unique sound to the table, but they blend together effortlessly. Almost like they were made to play together.
I have recently sat down, headphones in hand and stared at the screen looking at the title Against the Grain. Though I have heard it before I haven't heard it the way that I had planned to at that moment. Purely unbiased, analytical listening. Warning: When I do this I pick apart everything so don't ask for a review if you're not prepared for unadulterated honesty! I love these guys, but they know "Music is my life." So let's break it down, shall we?
The song starts of with keys rattling to a jail cell door, then opens with a distorted guitar riff reminiscent of duran duran's come undone and melds into a slow mellow drum beat. Kenny's lyrics break the melody and slowly speed the momentum into the chorus where his voice is then distorted in a Marilyn Manson fashion and the double pedal action dominates blending the guitar into the background. Tempo slows for the next verse, a slightly faster chorus than the first round with an increased guitar presence as it moves into a wicked solo, then gently adds minimal drums until the final chorus as it slows to a fade and slamming door.
The lyrics themselves dive into the topics of abuse, abandonment and the residual effects on the family unit as a whole at least as far as I can gather from my own take on the song.
All in all this song is a dark song, but it vibes so well that you could listen to it after you've had a hard day and are just struggling emotionally, but you could also play it for the beat as you unwind after work and crack a beer to relax. This song has no restraints, hell it even has enough bass that you can blast it in the car driving down the street or out to pick up chicks.
