Title: Surprised the heck out of me...
Review: I don't know exactly how to classify this band. Nu-metal? I don't think that term really applies so much to the heavy music scene anymore.I would say that they would be alternative metal, not emo or nu.First off, the vocals are just amazing. Not only the leads, but the backing vocs and harmonies are excellent. Haven't heard better since maybe Alice In Chains.Every song on here is worthy of being a single, and I think if they got the proper backing, they could be huge. There are hooks galore. I think I almost OD'd on catchy tunes. There are a few tender moments on this disc, but it rocks pretty hard while keeping true to the melody in it's title.If you enjoy bands like Taproot, 10 Years, godhead, etc., you'll love Evans Blue. No, they are not hardcore or anything, but I'm not ashamed that I like a broad range of rock and metal. I listen to Lamb of God and In Flames, too. I can appreciate great music when I hear it, and these guys are great.
