Protest The Hero New Album

AH! i bought it yesterday, its called Kezia. and its AMAZING. Way harder than their last CDs and WAY more talented. Its running closer to metalcore... The lyrics are way less politically angry but still good, puzzling and cryptic, but good. The bottom line is, you should all go out and by this album immediately.
www.purevolume.com\protestthehero has one track (Nautical) but don't go by that, i heard it and wasn't a big fan, it fits in to the album much better than as a single track.

Protest The Hero - Kezia

It's a lot more metal than usual but I guess people can dig that. They're still tight.

Whaat they have a Purevolume now

They're awesome. I've liked them forever. Kezia hasn't left my CD player since i bought it.

They're stll political, but i read in an interview that they are trying to write lyrics that are less obvious, and a bit more metaphorical and cryptic. The album itself is a concept album, about Kezia.

My theory is that part 1 is about religion, part 2 is about politics, part 3 is about gender roles and relationships, and part 4 is about themselves.

Hahahaha I remember once there was a big hardcore show in Toronto that, for some odd reason, Protest the Hero played at. Fucked Up, the local band that was headlining, went up and starting making soooo much fun of them. They said it was a hardcore show for hardcore kids, not whiney little suburban sellouts. So yeah, Protest the Hero went home, and people danced harder than ever for Fucked Up. End of story .

Protest the Hero is terrible. The vocalist (or I think the new vocalist?) really does sound like he's whining

Yeah, most people have problems with the vocals.

I admit, he used to be really really whiny in the early days of Protest The Hero, but nowadays, I think he's really improved exponatially since their EP.

ya he's whiney but i've gotten used to it and now i don't think i'd have it any other way, it fits really well into the music. And besides, its offset by the other members screaming and yelling.

Yeah, I have that song and I think it's pretty good. The vocalist is VERY whiny, but I don't mind it.

wtf, whiny? He has an unusual and high-pitched voice, he doesn't whine. People are large bundle of stickss when it comes to judging voices.

Awesome band, by the way. "Kezia" should drop arrive at my doorstep any day now.
