The wind. That's what you hear when you play this album. Tim Mann (singer) recites a poem. A dark atmosphere is created.
Then the music begins with the bass drum beating a couple of times. A guitar starts to play. The second guitar joins in. Finally, bass and vocals. The style that Tim uses for his singing is somewhere between singing, reciting and crying. Sometimes, you hear only his voice and on the background a guitar. But you can always be sure that the other guitar, the bass and the drums will return. Without mercy.
This is the sound of brilliant hardcore. Praising God. Pointing out what He can mean to you. Warning you for the mistakes you can make. Tim Mann, Dirk Lemmenes (now Stavesacre), Al Christiensen (drums), Mike Merryman (guitar) and Jason Parker (guitar) are Focused. Spirit Filled Hardcore.
The battle has been fought.
And has been won.
