The Window is open, all you have to do is look through it, to see me, and you...
 
Read this, seriously it's for me.

http://blogcritics.org/archives/2004/11/01/103900.php is where the article was originally located.

Fresh, political and addictive. These are the words that first come to mind when listening to The future leaders of the world disk LVL IV. (Pronounced level 4) Produced by GGGarth (Rage, Chevelle and Mudvayne) the disk has savage teeth and they dig in fast & furious from the start.





I have to confess that I had not heard one lick from this group before
I held their disk in my hands. I do have to say that I'm glad that I
was accidentally subjected to their sonic campaign. From the first
track I quickly became a partisan listener and by the third song I was
absolutely fervid. I will definitely be telling others to check this
one out because LVL IV kicks ass.



You see, this disk is not really just music -- it is a campaign.
Similar to the message of other bands like Rage Against the Machine and
System of a Down, this is a campaign to transform and inform -- an
attack on your senses and your intellect. The campaign message is right
up my alley too because it is all about the decline of western
civilization and (like myself) ring leader Phil Tayler is looking for
someone to blame.



On the closing track "Your Government Loves You", Tayler screams:



"Though I saw a flag with stars and stripes

That stood for equal rights

Civil liberties pursuit of happiness in life

Now I know we're all just hoes spokes on a wheel of fortune

Lost tones in a song eternal souls scorching"



Tayler, who sounds a bit like Wesley Reid Scantlin from Puddle of
Mudd at times sends a message that is very clear, "WE ARE PISSED" and
the emotions will be dripping from your speakers. If you are not a fan
of Puddle of Mudd don't let that stop you from checking this one out.
Tayler is not just another Puddle/Nirvana clone, he sounds like he ate
Scantlin and Cobain for breakfast and the guys are drowning in the acid
of his stomach. The emotion and pain are real and you feel it in every
pulse pounding beat of his fire-eating poetic delivery.



The song "Let me out" is an instant favorite because of this
painfully, emotive delivery. Tayler slashes out and sums up their album
as he screeches:



"Let me out, let me out I’m singing I’m a liar and a cheat in prison, Accused of telling the truth"



Now that the group has finally made it to major label status Tayler
finally has his chance to share his opinions and he is out to convert.
His message is clear that he wants to tell the world his opinion -- and
he believes -- he KNOWS he's right.



Another element this band has right is the ability to simply kick
out the jams even if you are not into politics and saving the world.
Crank it baby, just crank it and you will be left begging for more.


Does that describe them or what?
Seriously they are the shit and listen to thier music.
They deserve it, one of the BEST band's i've EVER listened too.
