With hypnotic beats, killer guitar and a more grown up sound than ever before, (hed) p.e’s newest album, Forever, serves up a tasty dose of what Limp Bizkit could not fulfill…. And what I mean by that is talent.
'Forever!' has this full on energy throughout the entire album that is very well presented. The foundation of (hed) p.e’s latest stabilizes itself between metal with a keen sense of hip hop. This balance is so apparent especially on track # 3, Closer. OnCloser, Jahred treats the mic like it is his bitch and he bursts into a flow that is unforgettable and relentless. It’s aggressive yet Jahred still maintains the ability to keep the track smooth.
What impresses me about "Forever!' Is (hed) p.e made it their mission to throwback to their old school days and just keep the record true to what they have established over the years: hard core lyrics with a variety of different music genera’s mixed in to keep their fans happy.
(hed) p.e truly laid the ground work of how to combine hip hop/rock into a winning combination. And with track #7 calleJahknows processes a transitional vibe with haunting vocals. The squealing of the guitars right at the beginning of Jahknowsliterally makes for a disturbing sound. However, it somehow works throughout the song without it getting annoying.
The track One of a Kind, I believe, is a dance infused, reggae riot which will bring on some heavy induced screaming. The drumming is very much precise and well-orchestrated which can make a person head bang at one moment and the next just flow with their body.
'Forever!' from (hed) p.e is for sure an album that will make one question if they should make a hemp necklace or go mosh pitting. I like how it goes from one direction to the other so effortlessly. Make sure you pick up this album on July 22 to support a band that has been on the music scene since 1994. (Hed)p.e. Forever! (2016) the 10th studio album and will make a mark for sure that will last…. #Cheers
