Chapter VII: Hope and Sorrow

They say that Sevendust is metal, but there's no evidence of that here as they blubber like a Creed tribute band. Oh, sure, there's some perfunctory attempt to trick you into thinking this is metal — they throw in some hot guitar licks for effect, a faux vocal rasp now and then, but as soon as they've lulled you into thinking that yes, this is metal, it's back to the whining. "Inside" is the sole interesting track for its intro that forgoes the usual angry metal sound for a creepy Krautrock-inspired static: a little something like the buzzing of insects, a weird itchy noise that you hardly notice until you realize you've been replaying it over in your head for the last hour.Write Your Own Review

Bio[+]Sevendust {consisting of Lajon Witherspoon (lead vocals), Clint Lowery (guitars and vocals), Vince Hornsby (bass), John Connolly (guitar), and Morgan Rose (drums and vocals)} distinguish themselves within the nu-metal scene through their heightened appreciation for melody and harmony in addition to their brutally heavy, rhythmically-oriented sound. Assembling in Atlanta, GA in 1995, the group released their self-titled debut two years later and followed it up with Home in 1999. At that point, they had played over 800 shows and released two albums in less than four years — quite an impressive track record for such a young band. Their latest TVT records release, Animosity focuses on Witherspoon’s powerful voice and has earned them a near-rabid fan base.
