Smile Empty Soul – “Consciousness”

Album Reviews | Nov 9th, 2009

Record Label: EMI Music
Genre: Alternative
Buy on Amazon.com

Dated grunge/alternative with midtempo, chunky riffing. I give them props for not trying a harder, possibly more lucrative nu-metal approach, but this wussy, feel-good grunge isn’t much better.

Bless their hearts, but this is like the bar rock music in the 90s, when bands wanted to be the next Soundgarden and couldn’t even be the next Candlebox.

Bottom Line: Even when this kind of music was popular, this album would have seemed derivative.
