Title: Fresh take on the alternative scene.
Review: This offering from Hourcast may at first seem like your run of the mill alternative offering, but a few minutes into the opening track of "This Life" will change your mind.Tempo changes are a plenty, and lead singer Patrick McBride makes it all work with everything from high controlled power to melodious harmonies.This CD may not be the most lyrically thought provoking, but it does have its moments.The music and melodies more than make up for it, with my personal favorite song being " Lunar".Some of you made have already heard this band without even realizing it, as they have a song on the "Saw 3" soundtrack called " Sakkara".Overall this CD has more ups than downs and rocks pretty well from start to finish.I gave this a four star instead of five because, although a few songs have really great lyrics, the majority are fairly basic. If pondering on taking a chance with this CD it would be money well spent.
