Free Music Notes for A Death-Grip On Yesterday
Free Music Review: I've had a "Deathgrip" on his album ever since I bought it
Hit: 5 Stars
I got into this band when I first heard "Right Side of the Bed" on Xbox's 'Burnout' soundtrack, a weird place to find such a treasure, because since then they have become my favorite band because it seems as though they can do everything in the hard rock spectrum, they can fit into every genre that all those who "label" constantly want to throw bands into...I had been anticipating their next album for a while now, I hope they are many more. 'Deathgrip on Yesterday' did not dissapoint. Many say the more singing in this album makes its softer, it may but not worse at all each song has that 'staying power' something in it to keep it in your head for weeks, months, years. It may be the chorus a line or two in the verse or one of the several guiter solo riffs neated stuck into many of the songs that kick it. Everytime I'm in my car I find my self grabbing my Atreyu CD again and again every day because there just nothing out there like this band at all.
1. Creature - This is very hard throughout,not sure if it's "the hardest Atreyu song yet" but one characteristic of Atrey sticks out in this song just the melodic way the vocals run through the verses its sic(i.e. "The Crimson" from 'The Curse'). The "BOOM" sequence is hot too
2. Shameful - Love the chorus here, especially that small "with the death of old and" can stick in your head forever...the beginning of this song is strong too with singing at beginning that sparkles, right after the first chorus the guitar-work is genuise
3. Our Sick Story(Thus Far) - Great intro instrumentally, the guitars during the verses can be best described as dramatic. By far the best part of this song comes at the end with the headbanging rhythm of the "Cross your Heart, False Your Heart"
4. The Theft - This is the softest song ever done by Atreyu, but proves how different they can be. This song is no snore-job though. The song is great to sing-along too, especially the chorus, very fastchorus when opposed to the slow verses comparabally is genius
5. We Stand Up - Extremely a hard song throughout. fast-paced as well throughout, everything about this song is fast. Love the solo as well.
6. Ex's and Oh's - Memorable song lyrically as well. Like an anthem, who doesn't love "It's time to rock and roll"? Love the solo this song as well, because it melodies the overall song you've heard before in the song, but with fast guitar blazing highlighting it.
7. My Private War - Probably my favorite song. Very heavy song. Love when right after the first verse the guitar slow down into a dropping pausing rhythm, then kicks you in the face and if you don't like the way "if everyday is another slug" then you are deaf
8. My Fork in the Road(Your Knife in My Back) - The best part of the song is the 40 second intro, love this song on the road late at night it really helps you relax with that intro, where the drums highlight. The picks up right back up to extreme paced verses. Love the chorus, the guitars almost talk to you, at the "should have got up left you" part and in the solo later
9. Untitled Finale - Great song, but the place this song wins in is the ending with the anthem-like "this is my farewell" chant repeatign for nearly two minutes, also the very beginning of the first verse when it kicks in is a nice touch it really doesn't sound like it's "marching on"
Did not rate any song specifically because they are all 9 to 10's
Hope you enjoy the album as much I do
