![]() ![]() It has almost none of the energy, tempo or groove of SITP or SM. They definitely want you to believe this is like "Snakes in the Playground".Īnd yet again, this is not "just like" SITP. But this time the band themselves have gone back to the SITP era logo, the same color scheme from the original SITP cover and put the word "Snakes" in the title. I always chalked it up to the publicist just doing what publicists do. In total I think I've seen advertisement that a new Bride album was going to be "Snakes 2" maybe four separate times. A few years passed and they wound up on another label for their next album, which was also advertised as being a return to "Snakes", but wasn't even close. But hey, everybody deserves a chance to experiment. It sounded like it was recorded in a bathroom using literal garbage as instruments. I'm sorry if I offend the band by saying so, but it was absolute trash. Their next album "Drop" was advertised as "Snakes in the Playground II" - it wasn't. Personally I thought Scarecrow was the better album but for whatever reason it never attained the recognition that Snakes in the Playground did, and the fans have been clamoring for another album like "Snakes" ever since. After some drama with their new label (who was trying to force them to sign another contract after seeing how much money SITP) they released another album called "Scarecrow Messiah" which was basically the second half of SITP - same style, same energy. Seriously it was an amazing album, if you haven't listened to it yet, stop reading this and go listen to it. They were signed to a bigger label went on a bigger tour and released an album called "Snakes in the Playground" that was widely regarded as on of the best albums ever released. They were good enough to get signed and four albums later started to gain momentum. Once upon a time there was a band that changed its name from Matrix to Bride and started making heavy metal. Before I review this album, I have to get something out of the way. ![]()
