The album starts off with the catchy rock song “Not Ready To Die.” It is heavily induced with the rock hard guitar manipulating the sound and poignant chorus. This sets the beat for the following song “Watch Over Me.”
The edgy dark rock n’ roll beat comes to surface with the single “Slave That You Are.” G Tom Mac then takes a different approach and vibe with the single “Crave You” which is racy and sensual.
“Soul I Bare” in a way went back to the roots of his single ‘Cry Little Sister.” It once again shows the edgy and moody feel of metal and rock with his lyrics, “Wide Awake I’m the haunted soul that sees everything.” This song made me envision Trent Reznor, from Nine Inch Nails.
UntameTheSongs has the sound of rock, metal and memorable lyrics perfectly stitched together.
