Acoustic guitar replaces wall-quivering distortion, yet this reimagining delivers no lesser quality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The new-fangled Get Off <\/em>preserves its cornerstone snarling bass; original echoes of I Miss The Misery<\/em> disappear before an acoustic backdrop falls in. Brother Hale\u2019s drums and his sister\u2019s incendiary vocals give way to ferocious ode to self-love I Am The Fire. <\/em>Gone is its former chugging intensity, this version\u2019s a slow burner. Standout gem Break In <\/em>sees Ms Hale join forces with Evanescence\u2019s Amy Lee for a lesson in powerhouse vocals: \u201cYou let me fall apart without letting go.\u201d Hale\u2019s serrated growls replace Whitney Houston\u2019s melisma in a hard rock I Will Always <\/em>Love You, <\/em>and layered vocals in the ever-threatening Mz Hyde <\/em>still warn off any potential suitor. Josh Smith\u2019s distorted bass concludes the album with the same steel-toed grit with which it began.<\/p>\n\n\n\n While these reimagined Halestorm favourites might be realised differently, their essential attitude remains undimmed. Yet another perfect showcase for Lzzy Hale as an unstoppable force of nature. <\/p>\n\n\n\n 8\/10 <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This review was published in the September 2020 issue of Classic Rock magazine, no. 280. – Acoustic guitar replaces wall-quivering distortion, yet this reimagining delivers no lesser quality.
