Does
anyone remember Strangers with Candy from MTV's "Ultimate
Cover Band Contest" Series? You have just found them.
I have loved these guys ever since their appearance on that
show.
Since
then they have come out with an album on Republic, which was
produced by Alex Lifeson from Rush. You would think it would
take them a long to get on some big touring bills and have
to play small clubs, but not Lifer, they toured with likes
of Cold, Dope, and Saliva. Big change from 2 years ago.
As
for the album, its good, but its your usual rock/rap album
that everyone and there brother has come out with flooding
the market. But for some reason Lifer sticks with me. I usually
skip over most rap/metal or rapcore or rock/rap albums, but
this one I can't put down. You can tell their influences on
the album come from Tool and STP.
Tracks
to watch out for, "My Room", "Boring",
"Blurred", and "Breathless". Overall this
album is good. Take a listen and you never know. This album
is a listen, not a buy.
