Wow, Vision! Kakšno presenečenje. Od teh tipov res nisem nič slišal že kar en lep čas. Niti si nisem mislil da bend še vedno ostaja in puff, tle je novi CD. Glasbeno niso več tako oldschoolersko obarvani kot včasih, pač pa se oprijemajo modernega punkrock zvoka s skorajda vedno prisotno hardcore agesijo/energijo. Enako velja tudi za vokalista, ki v večini prepeva melodično, zna pa tudi včasih malce bolj grobo zavpiti. Skratka, struktura komadov je zanimiva in včasih so prav prijetni za uho, ampak rifi se kmalu zdijo malce preveč tipični in dobim občutek, kot da poslušam nek punkrock band iz TV-ja, kar pa morda niti ni tako začudujoče, glede na to da je njihov prejšnji album ''Watching the world burn'' izšel za Epitaph Records. Mah, ne vem, prva dva komada sta super in mogoče še dva v nadaljevanju, preostanek pa je bolj srednja žalost in ne pomagajo niti solacije, niti rock'n'roll vplivi. Malce sem razočaran, kajti od benda, ki deluje že več kot 15 let,bi res pričakoval malce več oz. nekaj zrelejšega. Besedila so enostavna in se lepo rimajo, čeprav gre pač spet za iste teme kot pri podobnih bendih...hc/punk scena, odpor, notranja moč, vstrajnaje, spreminjanje, prizadeta čustva, itd. Nič posebnega. Vse skupaj pride v oranžno-črnem ovitku, katerega prednja stran se navezuje na sam naslov albuma. Kot sem že prej povedal, nad izdelkom sem rahlo razočaran, ampak mislim da zna biti ''Detonate'' kar vseč fanom Pennywise-ov in podobnih...

English Version:
Wow, Vision! What a pleasant surprise. I haven't heard from this guys for years and neither knew if they're still around or not and than one day I received this one. Of course, musically they are not as oldschool as they were in the past but they rather cling to modern punkrock sound with a constant presence of hardcore aggression and energy. The same goes for their vocalist which most of the time sing melodic yet he's not afraid shouting from time to time. Song structures are interesting and sometimes they are like a good food for ears but their riffing soon become so damn typical and I get a feeling like I'm listening to some punkrock band I heard on TV. Well, that's not really that surprising since their previous record ''Watching the world burn'' came out on Epitaph Records. I really like the first two songs and maybe two more songs ahead but the rest of material is pretty boring and neither solos, neither rock'n'roll infuences can't change that. I would have expect something much more mature from a band that's around for more than 15 years. Lyrics are simple and they rhyme really nicely but than it's again about the same subjects similar bands write...hc/punk scene, fight back, inner strength, persistence, hurt feelings and so on. Nothing special. All this come in a black'n'orange colours with a front cover that goes well with the album title. Like you could notice above, I'm a bit disappointed about this record but I still think kids who are into Pennywise and alike will eat this up.
