Free Music Notes for Dysfunction
Free Music Review: Staind's heaviest
Hit: 4 Stars
Back in the day, I bought Staind's "Break the Cycle" before I listened to "Dysfunction". I liked "Cycle" so much, that I decided to listen to some of Staind's earlier works. "Dysfunction" is the band's heaviest and most depressing. "Illusions of Progress" is nowhere near as dark and haunting as "Dysfunction". The songs 'Mudshovel' and 'Just Go' are full of anger and pain. "Suffocate" and "Crawl" are powerful, while "Home" offers a different and slightly major-key approach.
This, along with "Break and Cycle" and "14 Shades of Gray," are what makes Staind special and powerful as a rock band. Their most recent "Illusions of Progress" may be very weaker compared to the first three albums, but I can handle the lighter tone pretty much.
Grade: A
Dysfunction Poster
Limp Bizkit frontman Fred Durst fell in love with Staind so hard that he coproduced their major-label debut. This fact should be endorsement enough for the Massachusetts-based quartet's target audience. Although not as heavy on hip-hop influences, singer Aaron Lewis's guttural, dragged-through-the-mud vocals dig into the meaty guitar wall and thrash around the speakers like Durst's band. Dysfunction's all-you-can-eat buffet of decibels grows a bit wearisome by the end of the album, but a couple of numbers stand up and demand to be noticed. "Just Go" boasts a classically sludgy Mudhoney-like groove before settling into an uncoiling murmur ? la Judas Priest. The well-executed moshpit-ready "Mudshovel" gleefully cops from Alice in Chains' psychedelic leanings. Staind's hard-rock epistles are certain to gather the band a devoted following. --Jason JosephesAlternative Rock Music CDs
