Shinedown – Second Chance
SharePosted on 28. Jun, 2008 by Gallivanter in Music Reviews
The album kicks off with a strident first track (second track actually, I skipped “Devour”), which is the title track, “The Sound of Madness”. I’d recommend this song for all you headbangers. I love that track that I kept it on rewind for hours and hours (OK, not for the whole day but during my commute to and fro to work today).
When the next track kicked in, I thought I unearthed a solid rock album. “Second Chance” is an awe-inspiring mid-tempo tune that deserves to see the light of the day. I was already slobbering in anticipation of what’s to come. Thoughts of another BREAKING BENJAMIN-like band came to mind, and I was already thinking of downloading all of Shinedown’s previous work.
Sadly, that was not the case, shortly after this tune, it declined towards averageness. Oh well. There’s always Offspring’s new album to fall back on….oh wait, I just remembered the new album “Rise and Fall, Rage and Grace” sucked bigtime. I’m gonna look for my Breaking Benjamin CD.
Shinedown – Second Chance
My eyes are open wide and by the way, I made it
Through the day I watched the world outside
By the way, I’m leaving out today
Well, I just saw hailey’s comet shooting
Said why you always running in place?
Even the man in the moon disappears
Somewhere in the stratosphere
Tell my mother, Tell my father
I’ve done the best I can
To make them realise
This is my life I hope they understand
I’m not angry, I’m just saying
Sometimes goodbye is a second chance
Please don’t cry one tear for me
I’m not afraid of what I have to say
This is my one and only voice
So listen close, it’s only for today
Well, I just saw hailey’s comet shooting
Said why you always running in place?
Even the man in the moon disappears
Somewhere in the stratosphere
