P… O… D… Payable on Death. Long live Sonny! Ada kabar baik neh buat penggemar band Metal POD. Mereka merilis album terbaru April ini, ‘When Angels and Serpents Dance 2008’. Beberapa bulan sebelumnya sudah beredar ‘bocoran’ alias sample dari lagu-lagu mereka and I’m lucky enough. I got their complete songs today.

Dalam album ini, ada 13 lagu yang bisa Sobat UF nikmati. Menurut penilaian saya, ada 7 lagu ‘berat’ yang bisa bikin kuping budek dan 6 lagu ‘lembut’ yang bisa bikin pikiran melayang. Lagu-lagu berat: Addicted, Shine With Me, Condescending, Kaliforn-Eye-A, End of the World, God Forbid, dan When Angels and Serpents Dance. Lagu-lagu lembut: It Can’t Rain Everyday, I’ll Be Ready, This Ain’t No Ordinary Love Song, Roman Empire, Tell Me Why, dan Rise Against.

Buat mereka yang cinta mati dengan POD, album ini so pasti ‘a must have’. Menurut saya, dari semua album yang sudah mereka rilis, album Satellite still the best. Hampir semua lagu-lagunya keren seperti ‘Alive’, ‘Boom’, ‘Youth of The Nation’, ‘Satellite’, ‘Ridiculous’, ‘Thinking About Forever’, dstnya. Berikut ini daftar album yang sudah mereka rilis.

Gambaran seperti apa yang cocok untuk menjelaskan Toby McKeehan dan musiknya? Singkat kata, asyik banget jack! Semua pecinta musik dari berbagai aliran pasti seneng denger musiknya yang always fun. Kekuatan musiknya ada pada variasi dan kreativitas. Musik dan lagu TobyMac – begitu ia disebut – termasuk ‘jenis’ baru, perpaduan antara hip hop dan vokal rap.
