The Orb's Take: Just in time for summer, Turn up the volume & roll down the windows!

Album Review:
This California quartet's 5th studio delivers like a true rock-n-roll album should. Pure rock guitar riffs and solid vocals drive this album just like their previous contributions. Lead singer Jacoby Shaddix continues to show that he has great rock vocals that portrays strong emotion throughout Metamorphosis. Shaddix takes you through his journeys and addictions in the each track and proves that he has matured through is struggles. Tracks like "Change or Die" and "I Almost Told You that I Loved You" will make you want to roll down your car window and turn up the volume. "Carry Me", "Lifeline", and "March Out of Darkness" show a lighter, but versatile side to Papa Roach. Overall this is a great rock album; although I don't believe it is their best album they have ever released, it demonstrates how tight this band really is. Catch them this summer on tour, you won't be disappointed - they are one of the tighest live bands on the road today.

What to Listen to: "Change or Die", "Lifeline", "Live This Down"
