Generic Hard Rock by Alex USA
Reviewed on July 9th, 2004
For being utterly devoid of originality, this is actually a fairly decent album. While not unique in the slightest, the music is delivered perfectly. The drumming is flawless, as are the guitars, particularly during the several solos that highlight the cd. While vocalist Paul McCoy is no David Draiman or Maynard James Keenan, his voice gets the job done with everything from singing to growling to screaming.While 12 Stones is, I suppose, considered a Christian rock band, they don't have the lyrical stupidity and lack of seriousness that is detremental to the genre. Something else I should note: even if you don't particularly care for their music, I encourage you to try to catch 12 Stones live. They put on a damn good show for a thouroughly enjoyable concert experience. So there you have it, unoriginal but still solid music. Highlights of the album: Soulfire, Broken, Open Your Eyes, My Life
