"Break the cycle" CD by Staind

No matter which American radio station or tv channel you put on these days: ì Staind are everywhere! Since their acoustic hit "Outside" the quartet became the ì target of a huge media hyper which turned into medimania with "It's been a ì while" and the album "Break the cycle. To me, it's a logical consequence of a ì sensational album. The perfect mixture of harmony and heaviness, nihilism and ì euphoria, big songs and great earcandy. This inventiveness and diversity is ì exactly what others lack and make Staind so exceptional. The more so as singer ì Aaron Lewis is capable of more than agressiveness - ballads, sensual acoustic ì songs. An outstanding album, produced by Josh Abraham (Korn) with a cristal-ì clear sound making the morbid lyrics taste as sweet as cotton-candy. If you're ì looking for an addiction, this is were you'll find it!
