Title: Nu-Metal That's Actually New
Review: Sevendust's first record smokes. They tune way down, but sound like no other act out there. This is largely due to the impressive soulful vocals of Lajon Witherspoon. On "Black," he screams "I ain't doin' nothin' wrong" with authority. Just as impressive is his performance on the crooning to bludgeoning "Prayer." The rest of the guys are no slouches either. Guitarists John Connolly and Clint Lowery drop bombs on slammin' tracks, like "Too Close To Hate" and the AIC meets Pantera of "My Ruin." Everyone else out there that thinks they're heavy better be taking notes. Sevendust are here to stay.
Is the review positive or negative?
