Decyfer Down-Crash

Artist: Decyfer Down
Album: Crash
Release Date: May 2009
Label: INO Records
Decyfer Down came out with their second album Crash in May. Their former frontman, Caleb, left the band due to his family so the new frontman for DD is TJ Harris. In my opinion Caleb sounded better than TJ but this new album still rocks. It still brings the raw guitar riffs, catchy chorus', and some guitar solos. The album starts out with the song "Crash" which was on an EP before. It's not the best track on the album but is still pretty good. Another song "Fading", was played on Air1 a lot and is a brilliant song. From the very start to the end it hooks you. The lyrics are also very good in this song saying "wait, it's all that I can take and every single day a part of my soul is fading but now by letting go somehow unshackled and unbound I'm calling out your name." Life throws us a lot of curve balls but we have God to call and rely upon and he never will leave us. Another great song is "Wasting Away". The intro is awesome and it ends with a great solo. A few slow but really nice songs are "Best I Can", "Moving On", and "Forever With You". The lyrics are amazing in "Forever With You" saying that I want God in my life and to have a heart that is burning for Christ. Overall this CD is good but not the best in 2009. I would recommend to buy this CD if you like great talent and hard rock.
