Finally, Tremonti made the album he's been trying to create since Blackbird. A Dying
Machine is an album of bangers purely because Tremonti lets the music speak for itself instead
of trying to speak for the music. Truthfully, Tremonti hasn't changed much since Blackbird
but the most promising development here is how he's willing to change his approach to the same-old
song structures. The result is an album that sounds familiar yet invigorating. In short, A
Dying Machine is the realization of Mark Tremonti's ambitions. |
