artist: underoath
album: the changing of times
label: takehold records
release date: 2/26/02

First of all, this has to be one of the most unique sounding bands I have heard in a long time. The first track on the CD (and also my favorite) "The Sun Still Sleeps," starts off with electronic keyboard sounds then the band rips into the song. The vocals are very well done screamo vocals traded off by melodic signing for the chorus and hooks. The guitars are very melodic and make the song flow very well. What’s great is that all the songs on the CD flow so well together. The Changing of the Times has not left my CD player for weeks. I think the overall sound the band has is refreshing for a hardcore/metal/rock band. I just can’t stress how talented these guys are. By far, one of the best releases on this year.
