This is not a proper review, just really some rambling from the appreciation thread...
________
I have no idea why I didn't really like them so much the first time. I guess it is their unorthodox nature. They are a bit impetuous, however I have really been enjoying them the last couple days, prompting me to write some unorthodox impressions. Please excuse their rambling and possibly incoherent nature.
_______
The SS is a dirty little vixen, devoid of etiquette. She can turn on a dime from prim and proper to screeching, kicking and clawing; so goes the quality of the recording, there goes the SS.
The vocalist is who she loves the most. She pulls in close and puts a loving hand on the microphone and beckons you in. Vocals are the anchor in this love affair but the dirty vixen also has a thing on the side with the drummer. The SS in particular likes his snare. I can almost feel the sticks impact and the skins stretch. On second thought, I think she’s sleeping with the entire band.
She’s a cigarette smoker and a whiskey drinker. The SS doesn’t mind slumming and she enjoys hanging with the sleaze rock crowd. In fact, the SS has taken my previous distortion guitar favorites out back, kneed them in the groin, rubbed dirt in their faces and spit on them for good measure; then walks away leaving them in the gutter.
Love/Hate guitars couldn't possibly sound any nastier. I can practically feel Bones spitting his rap in Stuck Mojo. The wall of sound Sevendust produces is rich, deep and edgy.
Oh! Darling, the SS can play the role of the hippie. George, John and Paul’s voices sound fantastic on the SS. I get a live edge and an outdoor vibe from the SS with Abbey Road. The Sheepdogs, I Don’t Know, sounds as if it was recorded on the back of a flatbed, out in a field somewhere. And now it’s on to glam and Bowie simply sounds wonderful… must-resist-eyeliner.
The SS isn’t very forgiving and she can be downright cruel at times but she’s just got a way about her that has me coming back for more.
