Still Remains
The Serpent
Without re-inventing themselves, Still Remains found a way to bring the doom and the bombastic dynamics of metal and theatrical rock all back to major label release #2 in a way that both pulverizes and mesmorizes. Imagine the melodic inventiveness of Muse and the multiple layers of Scandinavian metal all crashing into your ears like waves. Maybe this is what Underoath would sound like if they were stuck at Ozzfest for two years. Similar in scope both musically and lyrically to 2005’s Of Love And Lunacy, the song “Dancing With The Enemy” throws a curveball by revealing a pop vulnerability that surprisingly works well. While the music of “The River Song” could’ve been culled from any one of a dozen screamo bands in the scene, it still feels like a song I’d like to hit the “repeat” button for, as do the other 10. It’s good to have these guys back. [Roadrunner] Doug Van Pelt
