The Good
"Hell Yeah" is sure to be the arena anthem for the summer. It's loaded with
killer riffs and one of those great chant-along chorus sections. Melodic
vocals and catchy lyrics help "Favorite Disease" ring in your head long
after it's ended. Meaty guitar riffage and angst filled vocals fuel the
album's title track "Light It Up." You might remember this one from WWE
programming. Rev Theory show their softer and more emotional side on the
acoustic driven track "Broken Bones." The opening riff on "Wanted Man"
is a guitar lover's wet dream. "Ten Years" had the the best of both world.
On one side it has all the power of a rocker, and on the vocal front
it has all the emotion of a ballad.
The Bad
Too short!!
The Verdict
Rev Theory come out the gate with guitars blazing, melodies flying, and vocals
booming on Light It Up. The group delivers some heavy tracks while still
remaining melodic. That's a rarity these days. To show their not all piss
and vinegar, the group sheds and emotion or two with some great heart-felt
ballads. Could this be the second-coming of Nickelback?
