EVERY TIME I DIE
The Big Dirty
Album Review by Alexandra McLoughlin
I have always been a great fan of Every Time I Die, however since the release of their latest album called The Big Dirty I started to appreciate even more the enthusiastic metal punk rockers from Buffalo, New York.
A huge metallic explosion is how I can describe the sounds coming from the guitars played by Guitarists Andy Williams and Jordan Buckley, not mentioning the anger of the vocalist Keith Buckley and yet easy to listen and understand the meaning of the lyrics as for the drummer Mike Novak who knows how to put the soft touch clearly breakthrough like the sun rising after the big storm.
According to Every Time I Die’s Wikipedia when mentioning about the album the band said
“Unless you’re a sorority girl, you’re probably not accustomed to dudes telling you that something called “the big dirty” is about to invade your personal space”.
Does this really happen? Ohh hell yes! Listening from the beginning to the end of the CD did not only make me jump, scream, run but to be honest at half of the time I didn’t know what I was really doing. That’s what I call Total invasion!
My favorite song from the album has to be “Pigs Is Pigs”? I mean…Who the hell have a song named like that! “Pigs Is Pigs”?
As for the lyrics with such addictive rimes like this one:
“Oh lord I am famed, Just said I am fit to swing, bout time I have prayed, My woman just might wear my ring” “Hang em High, keep your vows brief, let em swing, make em swing till it hurts and if you still believe, that man guilty of love cant survive. Then Hang em high or not at all”
After listening to the album I found it hard not to keep this song out of my mind and kept on hamming to it. |
