Hadn’t listened to the Insyderz since 1998’s Fight For Your Life LP. I didn’t bother to check out the two worship albums they released, may have been due to over saturation of Skacore at the time, or maybe with my ever changing musical taste, might be because I’m not a fan of praise and worship music in general. I had no idea that they released a new album in 2003, so here I am 10 years later reviewing it! Soundtrack To A Revolution is really, really, solid, beginning to end. This band sounds as tough as their home town of Detroit: great heavy guitar work, rhythm section deep in the pocket, gruff vocals, and catchy horn lines. If you liked the first two albums by Insyderz, you’ll love this one! Also check out their outstanding 2012 Kickstarter funded release The Sinner’s Songbook while you’re over at their Bandcamp site, featuring a great duet with Reese Roper (Five Iron Frenzy) and Mojo (O.C. Supertones) on the title track.
