STITCHED UP HEART “To The Wolves” – A Can’t Miss Album! Review By Metal Odyssey
The Metal world every few years needs a deserving kick-in-the-ass, to rid the status quo that try’s to rear its ugly head. Step in, Stitched Up Heart. This band’s new studio album, To The Wolves, is a guaranteed modern Metal can’t miss. It releases on September 1st, via Century Media. Not a dull moment on this new offering. Not one.
Stitched Up Heart explodes with grooves, hooks, their brand of heaviness, and of course, Mixi’s versatile and incredible vocals. Mixi can vocally deliver both smooth and hard as nails, while her intensity for the lyrics is heard in stunning integrity. Mixi also plays rhythm guitar, rounding out her essential qualities.
The Architect is one of my favorite songs on this album, which only clocks in at 2:50. Regardless, it’s the crunchy and aggressive small package that makes this song so tasty. The title track, To The Wolves, is immensely memorable for me and I’m flat-out addicted to it.
Randy Mathias on bass is heard markedly and gives this album its contagious grooves. Lead guitarist Merritt Goodwin, once again, has delivered a solid performance on this album, in my opinion. Drummer James Decker also casts a presence on each song. All aces on the backing vocals too, which gives this album that elevated vibe.
Annually, ten or so new Metal album releases reinvigorates my Metal soul. To The Wolves is such an album. Buy this new Stitched Up Heart album; this band has elevated their game and it’s their heaviest and best release yet. ‘Nuff said. -Stone
