P.O.D. Is In The Hizouse

The new POD CD sits in my player and will remain there for a bit. It is good. Not their best but good. It is hard to beat The Fundamental Elements of Southtown and Testify.

This CD is a bit more mellow than Testify but the change is good. They do rock it up a bit later in the CD and mix it up a bit with Kaliforn-eye-a but overall the sound is more mellow. Sonny lost the dreads but his vocals are still strong. Some of the lyrics are weak and a bit poppy but overall still have the POD touch with the slang and poor grammar.

They tell stories, sing, play and rock. All good parts of a decent album that should be enjoyed by all.

Welcome back Marcos. It is good to have you back with the boys.

And while I write this I'll just say goodbye to Michael Johns you won't be missed.

Bob... agree to disagree. It is okay to remake a Queen song in your own style, it is not okay to try to do Freddie's version. Michael choose option 2. Unforgivable. He should have learned from Metallica who do a smoking version of Stone Cold Crazy.
