Free Music Review: Perfect Dynamics
Hit: 5 Stars
This is my first Crowbar album, purchased in '08. I'm glad I bought this because in the times of overproduced, overhyped, overly complex metal, this album stands out as a genuine, polished and balanced album.
What was immediately apparent is that Crowbar are great at timing. Rather than switching time signatures like a child with Attention Deficit Disorder, they instead blend in tempo changes that work to make the music more interesting.
The lyrics are meaningful, can be understood and are memorable. The vocals are neither too forced above the music or muddied behind the guitar - they are presented as one of the instruments which is a sign of a balanced album.
The guitars are slow and heavy, the bass warps your skull and the drumming is good. As for the tracks on the album, there's a mix of slow and heavy, fast and heavy, as well as gentle and calm. Regardless, the songs are distinguishable and together as an album, it all comes together to provide a perfect dynamic.
I can't wait to hear their next effort!
