Title: Stick with the Whammy pedal Tom.......
Product review: While the concept behind The Nightwatchman certainly has merit, the execution of this album is not up to the same standard. As a fan of Rage Against the Machine, I was interested to see how this would compare. The guitar playing is mediocre, and the vocals are ridiculous. Tom's singing sounds affected and forced. While Zach de la Rocha spit his venom on the Rage albums, Tom is clearly making a profound effort to whisper his. His voice actually doesn't sound that bad when he's singing naturally, it's the amateurish attempt to channel 'Nebraska'-era Springsteen that's laughable. Overall, this was a real disappointment. This pales in comparison with 'Nebraska', 'Ghost of Tom Joad', or any protest music by Neil Young.
