Where can I
get the CD?

Blindside - Silence

This is probably a useless review for most of you. Because this is an album which has been released a quite long time ago and with its huge success most of you know it already. But I am aware of those faithful metalheads that reject to listen to commercial stuff and therefor have refused to get in contact with Blindside.

Blindside is a four piece unit, hailing from Sweden. Originally they played straith Swedish hardcore but now (thank God) they've left most of those influences behind them and gone for a more metalish sound, still not metal enough for most of you but still far better than they were before.

Still I find this record quite enjoyable to listen to, it's not an awesome album but still quite good. The sad thing is that the lyrics are quite lame. I really hope that the new one will have better ones, specially when they have achieved such commercial success. It's a great oppertunity to reach out to the people with the gospel.Amen.

An album that could have been much better than it actually is.
