Free Music Notes for The Unveiling
Free Music Review: Close to Perfection
Hit: 4 Stars
I have been reviewing albums for several years now. In college I was an A&E writer for the newspaper and have heard more than my fair share of mediocracy. Now, that being said, Cry of the Afflicted stands out. Being a Christian band, I was half expecting the music to be lackluster, and the lyrics to be a non-stop praise fest. I couldn't have been more off. "The Unveiling" is a non-stop in your face explosion of sound and energy. The guitar work and drumming is unstoppable, and comparable to Secret and Whisper or (TTN) Saosin. Vocally the group mixes scream and non-scream well. The balance is much better than Underoath, who at times feel like they are overdoing it a bit.
The album doesn't shy from their religious conotations. The lyrics flow well across the musical tapestry, and regularly will dip down to give us a nice uplifting message centered around Jesus' teachings. This is not to say that the album is preachy or overly Chrsitian. The CD overall is more of a positive message album, rather than a God-worshiping album. If you're looking for the former, this is a great album. If you're looking for the latter, you might be happy with the effort. My advice, get it...whether you're a christian music lover or not. The power and intensity of the music is enough for anyone, while the upligting message will help brighten your day.
