Free Music Review: More mainstream than Maroon 5
Hit: 1 Stars
Formula for an alexisonfire song
1. Melodic, testosterone free intro, into "crushing verse"
2. Worst screamer in the world goes on for a few measures
3. Sing chorus, preferably with high pitched squeal vocals
4. Repeat
5. Outro
Pathetic.
Crisis Poster
"This is from our hearts" is the impassioned declaration that opens Alexisonfire's third CD Crisis. Longtime fans of the Ontario emo-core group would never doubt that claim; the 5-piece delivers a powerful one-two punch via their juxtaposing vocalists, from the screams of co-lead George Pettit to the melodic intensity of fellow frontman Dallas Green. Their pairing is absolutely perfect: Pettit's primal wail would on its own be too extreme to appeal to the masses, while Green's emotive vocals (not unlike Amy Lee of Evanescence) would not merge as fluidly with the group's heavy guitars and metal-influenced drum beats. Together, their fans adore them: the group pushes the boundaries of 'pop' music, with Crisis debuting on Canadian charts at No. 1, although, ironically, very few tracks can actually be played on pop radio. Overall, the disc is more extreme than their past efforts, both harder and softer than before. The strong, crisp production further enhances that appeal, especially on the caustic first single "This Could Be Anywhere in the World" and in the gothic sounds of the closing track, "Rough Hands." Much of the CD stays true to AOF's unique style, save for "You Burn First" which is dangerously reminiscent of Nine Inch Nails. The quiet-to-loud sonic implosion halfway through the cut, however, creates a forgivable, discordant highlight. --Denise SheppardAlternative Rock Music CDs
