\"\"A big change has occurred in the Mind of the Sick camp. Noah Tubbs is still about welcoming people as they are and not conforming to stereotypes. MotS still churns out catchy, groovy industrial metal that lives in the same neighborhood as Klank and Rob Zombie. But now, Mind of the Sick is not a \u201che,\u201d but a \u201cthey.\u201d Noah has added a full band to support his musical vision. While I can\u2019t pinpoint it exactly, there is more of a \u201cband\u201d sound to the music, as opposed to the last album which was obviously one person doing everything. There are places where that \u201cone-man band\u201d sound still comes through in the music, but I bet after a few live shows the next album will have all of that worked out. \u201cLove Your Haters\u201d is my personal highlight of the album, but there are many songs to chew on (and mosh to). My only complaint really is that I would love to hear a real full, meaty mix for the songs. This is a DIY album and that shows a bit in the overall sound quality. But the trade-off for that is you get an album that is free from corporate interference, allowing it to shine in the \u201cbrutal honesty\u201d and \u201cjust being myself\u201d departments. Overall, I like this album and highly recommend it to fans of this genre.<\/p>\n[2012 Independent | Purchase: mindofthesick.com<\/a>]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
