Spoken

Self Titled

Tooth & Nail

Grade – B+

The self-titled album from Spoken is their sixth studio album and still, somehow I have managed to be completely unaware of the band previously.  My mistake.  The self-titled release varies from modern rock to hard-screamo-rock with a bonus mega-ballad “You’re The One.” (Again, as with many other rock releases, the ballad is my favorite.)  Other songs of interest of the album include the hyper fast “Brought to Life” and “History Erased.” 

The band does well to depict their faith in their music.  There is an awesome interview (see link below) that I found via their web site.  The band has both an official web site and a MySpace with song samples and touring information.  My guess is that this is one cool band on the stage and I know that I’ll be watching for them to come nearby.
