Deaf Symphony™ unleashes their sophomore effort, entitled Chains of Love, with a vengeance.
The release contains ten tracks of kick-in-the-gut heavy metal rock, anchored upon thundering grooves, crunching guitar hooks, shredding melodic leads, and heavy, but articulable, vocals. Well-thought-out lyrics capture the mood of the music on each and every song, boasting strong soul-stirring phrases that I found myself reading again and again, long after my speakers fell silent. Each track has a melodious and memorable flavor, without sacrificing any heavy metal edge—a skillful talent that only the top artists ever master.
Much akin to the average listener, even with most of my favorite bands, my enjoyment level of a CD usually breaks down like this: two or three songs that I absolutely love, four to six that I totally enjoy, one or two that I could take or leave, and one that I simply skip past each time I listen to the CD. Not so with Chains of Love. This entire CD hits the bull’s eye of my hard core sweet spot, and I continually found my head involuntarily nodding to the driving rhythm of each and every track.
Matt Cerbin and Howard Askeland master the definitive dual-guitar partnership, blending unique styles that compliment one another, while providing the inimitable six-string bruising that is the essence of the band’s unique sound. The gifted duo is scarcely rivaled when it comes to mixing taste and finesse with raw unbridled guitar fury.
Slamming home the powerhouse grooves with the tastefulness of a session drummer, and the ferocity of a runaway train, is Larry Cox. With rhythmic double kick patterns that mirror intricate guitar rhythms, Cox possesses the ability to almost solo around the kit while simultaneously locking down a rock-steady tempo within each song’s arrangement.
However, it is Chris Rogers that truly supplies the band’s quintessential lifeblood. Rogers masters the ability to blend pitch-perfect melody with all of the throaty-growled passion required to inspire listeners to belt out their own vocal accompaniment while driving ninety miles per hour down the freeway. However, what really captures a listener’s attention is Rogers’ ability make a mouth full of syllables fit into half the space they were designed for, while keeping ninety-five percent of the words recognizable.
Part of me wants to tell you about each and every song. Unfortunately, space restrictions deny me the ability to shout from the rooftops all of the accolades that I would lavish upon this CD. Thus, let me provide you with a few descriptors; fierce, chest-pounding, articulate, raw, melodic, intense, refined, aggressive, dynamic, spirited, introspective, pleasing, ballsy, and passionate.
In closing, let me affirm that all four members bring world-class talent, and top-notch songwriting abilities, to the project—which is truly evident on ten standout tracks. With grinding guitars, heavyweight drums, and impetuous vocals, Deaf Symphony™ remains poised to forge what is sure to be a solid anchor of rock metal legacy.
