Infrastructure - Salt the Earth
'Salt The Earth' is the debut album from the Boston band Infrastructure and the paper Side-Line Magazine has shortly described it all with the words "Simply Brilliant". As so many times before I will be the black sheep that don't agree with the rest.
The singer Stacia Tucker, who's the one who do almost everything in the band, moans out her lyrics, sometimes in a rap-alike way. She's backed up by industrial electro with some inlays of trip-hop. Although I have to admit that it feels original and new, I still quickly get fed up with Stacia's way of singing and I think most of the titles sound alike. It's hard to keep one track from the other.
I find the last track, "Unfair and Unbalanced" in a remix version by Clint Sand from the band Cut.Rate.Box, to be the only good track in this kind of boring and lame album.
