Lee >From: Ian Duckhouse > >No bonus track. Looks as though it is a standard release. They did the >same with Human Clay but several months later released a 'Special Ed' in >the UK with a couple of computer movies of the 'Arms wide open' and >'Higher' Videos. > >Well I have been here at work coding away listening to the new album (about >four times now I think...) here is a little break down of the tracks and >what I think of them... > >1) Bullets - Nice heavy track to open the albumn. I get the feeling it's a >comment about how shallow some people and society can be. > >2) Freedom Fighter - Kind of apt for the moment. Chorus Lyrics 'I'm just a >freedom fighter, No remorse, Raging on in Holy War. Soon there'll come a >day when your face to face with me. Face to face with me.' Just makes me >think of the shock of watching the events of 11th Sept. :o( > >3) Who's got my back - A fantastic song about lost faith (I think) and >where we try to seek faith now. Stapp's vocals are really cool on this >one. > >4) Signs - Tremonti at his best. Good combinations of moods in the song. >About finding yourself in the modern world. > >5) One Last Breath - Bit of a morbid song. Sort of reminds me that my 30th >isn't that far off! :o) > >6) My Sacrifice - Sure most of you have heard this on the web. Really cool >melody makes me think of spending time with my girlfriend...you know when >you get to that point where you're free, you're careless and you believe! >:o) > >7) Stand here with me - Quite a 'happy' song. All about memories of people >you once knew and how you interpret them. In this case as the Lyrics of a >song. Cool use of breaks in the song for the chorus line. > >8) Weathered - Title track, kickin' song. I really like it. Can't really >say why, I just like it. > >9) Hide - A cool song that makes me feel like just walking out of work and >going back the the British countryside (where I grew up) and loosing myself >in the beauty of the place. No reason to hide... > >10) Don't stop dancing - Another feel good song. About determination in >the face of problems. Good guitar mix...quite alot going on. > >11) Lullaby - A very simple song. Stapp's vocals are again really cool. >Song is a bit 'More than words' but the lyrics mean something and sound >like they are sung from the heart. > > > >All of these are my views, you'll probably like it for a different set of >reasons - but hey I think it's a really cool album! > >Ian > _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp To unsubscribe or change your preferences for the Creed-Discuss list, visit: http://www.winduplist.com/ls/discuss/form.asp
