A FAITH CALLED CHAOS - FORGIVE NOTHING

After listening to this album, I can\'t seem to get it out of my head. Not in that good way where you can\'t stop singing a song because it\'s so catchy. It\'s more like lead singer Jon Logan Allred\'s incessant screams have raped my ears, chiseled their way into my brain, and nested there.
Forgive Nothing is A Faith Called Chaos\' debut LP, and is a conglomerate mass of impelling guitar riffs, violent drumbeats, and compulsive bass lines. Its tracks have the soft flare of Seventies rock \'n\' roll that is unfortunately hidden behind its death metal vocals.
There are hardcore death metal bands out there who use screams to put their frustrated views of society in your face. But it seems like A Faith Called Chaos is simply using them in order to hide the fact that their lead vocalist can\'t actually sing.
With lyrics both written and sung by Allred, it seems as though he and the rest of his band mates are on different planes. While the music itself is a good blend of old school rock and metal, the vocals are painful to listen to, and don\'t compliment the other band members\' talents at all. I would like a copy of Forgive Nothing with no lyrics on it so I could actually enjoy the music.
If you don\'t have enough screams inside your own head, you can buy Forgive Nothing in stores on June 1st.
