Aspera

My favorite new band!!!

     

I bought this album based on a tip from a friend of mine. He heard this band on radio and he told me to check them out. He said that I wouldn't regret it..... he was right. This band is on fire through most of the album and when they kick it back for a couple of the tunes it seems to all fit in perfectly. Its got everything from in your face heavy guitars to power ballads and even a little bit of rapping ala Faith No More. The first tune called "Funky New Satan" is so in your face it's unbelievable. The band's sound is a combo of modern rock and alternative. They have a bit of early Green Day influence in songs like "The Problem's Mine" and another called "Confusion". There is also some System of A Down and Alice in Chains vibes in their sound. They have a real knack for writing catchy tunes that have a real edge. My favorites from the album are "Funky New Satan", "She Likes The Way That I Smell" "Me" and an intense one called "Jackknife". I've been listening to it over and over and I'll likely add more songs to my list of favorites. If you're into modern rock/alternative check these guys out and like my friend said, you won't regret it
