FULL DEVIL JACKET / DAY OF FIRE...KNOCK , KNOCK!

[Guest Melodic_Lover]

...May I come in sweetheart? , that's what I used to say to my English teacher , I was always a drop-out or so I was told back then , so that's probably the main reason why my English sucks Tits! , big juicy ones in fact , I always tried to skip her English classes and art history classes as well , who needs that shit man? , or so I thought back then , she was so HOT that whenever I was next to her I felt like telling her...*Hey Baby, you want to come to my house and work on your math skills? , We can add the bed , subtract the cloths , divide the legs and multiply!* ...So since my English sucks Tits! , cut my roommate some slack , he's a good guy , and slice me some ham while you're at it , I'll put some butter on the bread , he'll also probably toss in some cheese and we'll wind up having one hell of a good-tasting snack!

 

I guess most of you already know me as I use to post over at Melodicrock.com , we all need to have a good sense of humor , I'm also a good guy , just ask Koogles , he's the only one that really knows me , right Tony? , I don't consider my posts to be "junk" at all but I'm just getting a kick out of posting this shit here in the Flamefest forum , the junkbox...so , have fun everybody!

Well , what do we have here today , a bag of crispy chips here on my desk , a cold beer that's just been opened and this album that's been blessing my stereo ever since I was fortunate enough to get my hands on a copy...

 

I've been with my head down in the gutter , jumping out of my skin , pretty much like my computers lately , trying to figure out what the hell's happened to me as I just can't seem to be able to shake off this Alternative Metal addiction that's taken over my peaceful inner world like a bad drug that you just can't lay off . Michael Sweet's "Truth" album probably has a lot to do with it , I wasn't into that kind of music at all I'm telling ya' but that great disc made me turn my head to check out a whole genre of music which I had been avoiding with a passion for some reason , It just wasn't my thing or so I thought back then , after said album I got Audiovent's "Dirty Sexy Knights in Paris" , and the rest is history as I haven't stopped buying Alternative/Nu-Metal , Nu-Rock cd's ever since , bands such as The Used , Fuel , Beck , Stabbing Westward , Sevendust , Skrape , shit!...The list is actually longer than Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's boxer shorts!

 

Cutting to the chase , I bought this puppy on a whim after reading someone's review , the guy was mega-psyched to hear more music from these guys so I thought , what the heck , let's check it out...I got so excited hearing the opening riff to "Wanna Be Martyr" that it drove me to the point of literally having crispy popcorn coming out of my zipper , now I know someone who would have loved to have seen that . When the second track "Flashback" came on the stereo I freaked out like that waitress at the restaurant where a friend and I were having lunch some months ago , we ordered two cheese cakes and she came back with some weird stuff made out of cheese , we told her that we weren't accepting that stuff and she freaked out , the manager was around and I can tell you that the bastard was larger-than-life and could have perfectly been in the movie *Revenge of the Nerds* , the waitress' melons were bouncing all over the place , I thought that was hilarious , as a matter of fact , at the end of the incident I had already changed my mind and actually felt like having 2 slices of...Melon! , as I was saying when the riff to the second track "Flasback" came on the stereo I was also a pair of knockers away from freaking out and actually felt like smacking the shit out of a teddy bear that my X-girlfriend left in our flat on her way out the door , luckily enough I was there and didn't let the door hit her right there where she likes it , yeah genius...in the ass! , but only when she's drunk and in the mood for some special treatment , if she ain't smashed like that car I drove into a wall a decade ago or horny out of her freaking mind then she would probably wipe that idea out of your mind faster than a passing concorde , you would have to settle for less , a blow-up doll will do!

 

This stuff is Hard Rock/Metal with a modern touch and has nothing to do with Butch Walker or any of that @!#$ , that guy needs Viagra for crying out loud! , I don't know if he actually does but his music certainly does , I ain't trying to wind anybody up but oh man!...his music is so boring and uninspiring that If I ever wanted to jump my girlfriend's bones listening to that guy's music I'd probably be the one in need of a double dose of the miraculous blue pill...

 

Singer Josh Brown has a new Christian band named *Day Of Fire* which I haven't heard yet but you can bet your middle finger that I definitely will...

 

 

Both bands are worth checking out...Not bad at all!...now that no-one's listening I'll tell you something , the FULL DEVIL JACKET's self-titled album is a fantastic CD , some folks would even say it's a Masterpiece , check it out and make up your mind...I *Really* dig this album , kick-ass stuff!

DAY OF FIRE is excellent, in my opinion, a fine example of modern melodic hard rock that blows away Josh's previous band (Full Devil Jacket).

Wow , are you serious? , we'll have to check "DAY OF FIRE" out then , I've actually been spinning the FULL DEVIL JACKET album today and patting myself on the back for having bought it so cheap as I did , it ain't bad at all , I like this band...

This review might be of interest to some of you...

At a time when most of the up-and-coming heavy rock acts appear to be derived from the KORN / LIMP BIZKIT school of songwriting, it is truly refreshing to come across a band that is modern sounding yet doesn't succumb to the idea that one must incoprorate hip hop infuences into its style in order to have a chance of becoming commercially successful. Coming across like a potent mixture of ALICE IN CHAINS, FILTER, BUSH and GODSMACK, Jackson, Tennessee's FULL DEVIL JACKET may not be breaking any new musical ground with their perfectly balanced blend of dark, haunting melodies and super-heavy rhythms, but they execute their songs with more conviction than virtually anyone else that has attempted this sort of sound over the course of the last decade (at least since AIC's classic—and decidedly less aggressive—Dirt release).

 

Although the whole band should be credited for their truly excellent performances, it is undoubtedly vocalist Josh Brown that shines throughout the 11-song CD, his vocal style spanning everything from the aggressive growling of "Mr. Wiggly" to the Layne Staley-like soulful delivery of "Fastblack". The music itself is similarly diverse while retaining a uniformly downbeat groove, never sacrificing melody for pure aggression or vice versa, and consistently producing the kinds of dynamics that are sadly missing from the bulk of today's new releases.

 

It is not very often that a band as talented as FULL DEVIL JACKET comes along, and there aren't many albums that I would recommend more highly than this stunning full-length debut.

I've never heard Day of Fire but once upon a time I really liked the Full Devil Jacket full length release.

I used to play the heck out of that one back when I first bought it.

Good Lord, that first post, contains some of the most insane, rambling run-on sentences I've ever read, and, not to mention, it has far too many commas in it, that guy seriously, needed to try decaf, you know what I'm saying?

Maybe before he switched to decaf he exploded and that's why he's never been back.

That dude's a regular over at Melodicrock.com, I believe. A bit of a free spirit. Nice guy if I recall correctly.
