Immediately evocative of Grant Wood's American Gothic painting, this CD brings brooding storm clouds over the Midwest and Southern sensibilities the music grows out of. Bold in lyrics and experimentation, 16HP pushes their instruments in directions I've never heard before. David's vocals resound with passion, even when it veers into territory replete with hillbilly earmarks. The themes range from picking up women to repentance before a majestic God. If I wasn't familiar with Edward's Woven Hand material I would have thought that the religious sensibilities were merely a façade. Instead, I see a thorough mixture of the transcendent with the gritty fleshiness of real life, set to music perfectly crafted for the job.
FIRST TIME HEARD ABOUT THIS BAND BEFORE FEW MONTHS FROM A GOOD FRIEND. I BOUGHT IT AFTER HIS RECOMMENDATIONS AND WAS A SURPISE AND A PLEASURE ! GREAT ALBUM INDEED ! I HIGHLY RECOMMENDED TO EVERYONE WHO HAS 'HUNGER' FOR NEW SOUND ! I'LL KEEP LOOKING FOR OTHER ALBUMS OF COURSE. THANKS EBAY FOR GIVING ME SPACE TO WRITE DOWN MY OPINION. BEST REGARDS TO ALL, ALEX.
This CD is so unique and these guys are so underated. They are incredible and have such a sound of their own. I think that this CD is great and anyone who appreciates music would not be at all disappointed!!!
Its a different style rock music. A little bit Dark wave , a little bit alternative , a little bit progressive. Very very good album!
