Album Review
The term "melodic metal" certainly has changed over the years. Back in the 1980s, the style was best suited for glam hams who were all about pontificating about (in the immortal words of Pvt. Cruiser from Stripes) "fast cars and fast women." Come the 21st century, some may consider a group like Still Remains a melodic metal band, but that's just one facet of the group, as a much tougher metal sound also lurks beneath the surface. This is especially evident throughout their third release overall, 2007's The Serpent, as the vocals alternate between sung and shouted and the rubbery riffs are equal parts nu metal and thrash. And lyrically, there is nothing party-hearty about Still Remains — considered Christian metalcore by many, the group deals with the same "us against them"/'trying to make sense out of life" topics that the majority of similarly styled bands tackle nowadays. Add a dash of Iron Maiden-esque guitar harmonies and song titles that could double as poem titles at your local coffeehouse's poetry night ("The Wax Walls of an Empty Room," "Dropped from the Cherry Tree," etc.), and you're ready to ride The Serpent.
Customer Reviews
A real display of versatility.
From the metalcore energy of "Of Love and Lunacy" to this, you can scarcely tell it's the same band. As a matter of fact, though, it only helps to make the album more enjoyable. This is a HUGE transition from one side of the spectrum to the other, but it's moreso a masterpiece keeping that in mind. I can call it thrash metal now, which is quite alright with me. They've worked out some of the kinks with guitar work and added in a synthesizer, as well as revamped some of the blast beats they had worked on mastering in their first album. These guys really have come a long way and I'm glad to say "The Serpent" is possibly even better than "Of Love and Lunacy."
Dont Fret its Still Good
I just wrote a detailed review but timed out. So I will summarize...This album is softer than the previous but is extremely creative. It has a foreign metal sound at the same time new edge cut. It seems to have alot of work put into it without a doubt. **DO NOT BUY** these songs first the serpent ( first song ) and Maria. Buy the whole album if you get these. Great Starters Are -Anemia In Your Sheets -The Wax Walls of an Empty Room -Dropped from the Cherry Tree *True Creative Talent are Stay Captive and Avalanche The remaining songs are slower but are undoubtably amazing.Whole album is recommended.
Too bad...
Of Love and Lunacy was a masterpiece...I loved that album and now they cut out the intensity. The guy who said they did what Trivium did was right: not necessarily that they sold out but that they took steps in a new direction, but it is a direction that fans of hardcore and metalcore don't really feel like following and a direction that will get them some radio time. It is too bad, because Haste The Day did something similar, but kept screaming in every song. SR has half the songs on the album that have the potential to become radio anthems, which means they really changed their mindset. Its gets two stars because of Anemia in Your Sheets, Wax Walls, and Avalanche.
