About the Artist Breach Of Trust are four human beings who smack you in the face with their crunchy-smashy sounds, and endear themselves to you with their attitudes to life, music, and all the rest of it. Hailing from La Ronge, Saskatchewan, Canada, the band was formed in 1994 to be a voice for it's members - a circle that we as listeners can enter into with the group as our guides. Nosebleed17 This is typically not what I usually listen to, but this CD just got my attention... dj red This album is awesome and I'd compare it to staind and older tool maybe, but the vocals are alot different... Amazon.com All four members of Saskatchewan's Breach of Trust are of aboriginal descent, which affords them--and the hard-rock genre--a unique perspective. That may explain why the group keeps the toxic rants in check, instead turning their anger and confusion toward questions of spirituality and identity on this debut. Songs like "Who Am I?" and "An Offering" go deeper than the usual self-absorption of most rock lyrics, while an unreserved respect for nature drives "So Civilized." Metallic riffing, a raging vocalist, and a crack rhythm section keep all the tracks tight, loud, and dynamic, but two cuts in particular elevate Songs for Dying Nations above the competition. "Bring Me Down" has a killer chorus and "Awakening" boasts a monstrous rhythm that nails the song into the listener's consciousness. Other numbers are nearly as effective, though, especially the very Fugazi-like "Generational" and the aforementioned "An Offering." At one point on the disc, singer Marty Ballentyne roars, "Life is sacred so we ask for guidance." But, judging from Songs for Dying Nations, the spirits are already with this band. --Shawn Conner Check out the artist's website: http://www.breachoftrust.com Track List: 1. Disease 2.
