Free Music Notes for State of the World AddressFree Music Review: Grade A Hardcore...A Must-have!
Biohazard's "State of the World Address" is,simply put,a top-notch album.They're a great band;very talented,socially aware,and did I mention a great band? I love everything they've done,but this album is my favorite.Their high-energy sound is a brutal hardcore/metal hybrid,but also has a lot of groove and soul to it.Danny Schuller is an awesome drummer,he lays down some really driving beats.The guitar work,courtesy of Billy Graziadei and Bobby Hambel (who was later replaced with Rob Ecchoveria,formerly of Helmet) is also great,complete with head-banging riffs and piercing leads.Evan Seinfeld's bass is pulsing,driving,groove-driven,and to me,inspirational-I'm a bassist too! Billy and Evan are also the lead vocalists-having two singers oftentimes doesn't work,but the Hazard executes it brilliantly.Also,I love when Billy sings a line,and Evan repeats it in a shouting tone (you'll hear what I mean).The lyrics are also excellent.For the most part,it tells about growing up in the inner city,and dealing with the problems that urban life has to offer,such as drugs,gangs,racism,etc. Some people think Biohazard should have more variety lyricaly,but I think what they have works great.They've obviously been through a lot of hard times,and the lyrics are a perfect reflection of that.Also,in the song "Remember" they pay tribute to our Vietnam veterans,who usualy don't get nearly enough respect. They have a very positive message,they oppose racism,gang violence,and all the other things that plague society.I can't pick a favorite track,because they're all so freakin' great! I highly reccomend this album,it's a hardcore masterpiece! If your reading this,and you don't have this record,buy it A.S.A.P.,you won't regret it.In closing,I'll point out certain things to watch for:A sample of Harvey Keitel's dialogue from "Reservoir Dogs" (one of my favorite movies) at the beggining of "Lack There Of",a 2-minute flemenco/classical intro to "Failed Territory" (a very innovative thing for a hardcore band to do),and if you let track 14 ("Love Denied") play all the way through,you can hear the band singing an accapella about tattoos,which is something I really liked,being tattooed myself.I'm not sure if that bit appears on the cassette,because I've only heard the CD, but listen for it anyway,it's cool (and you can also hear Sendog of Cypress Hill,who appears on "How It Is" singing in the background of this "tattoo song".) Bottom line...BUY THIS ALBUM!!!!
