5 out of 5 stars love........2006-11-04

what words does one use to describe utter bliss? oh, i guess i could use 'utter bliss'. program the dead is different from other kinds of music. its not in a genre, its different. a hybrid, if you will. anyways. it doesnt matter what i think, because i obviously adore them. try them out. i've never met a person who hasn't liked them.

4 out of 5 stars A Surprise.......2006-06-24

Had it not been for the Finnish Goth N' Rollers, The 69 Eyes, I would have never heard of this group. I saw them open for The 69 Eyes in March of 2006, and at first I wasn't that intrigued. It may have been the fact that I just wanted thier set to be over, but I didn't enjoy this music much at first. However, I had the chance to talk with Program The Dead's vocalist Matt Koruba, and I decided to buy the album anyway. After I took it home, I was glad I spent the $10.

Program The Dead's debut release is by far one of the better albums that I've heard in the past few years. It takes the musical aspects of hard rock and jazz, and adds in the political mindset of modern punk rock. Songs such as "Point The Finger," and "Swimming In A Sea Of Media" show that there is still some creativity in today's hard rock/punk scene.

The album does have its flaws, as most musical conquests do. The vocals tend to give way to all and out screaming on a few occasions, and towards the end of the album, the songs blend together a bit. However that in no way justifies passing up this release. I for one am eagerly awaiting Program The Dead's sophmore album, and I hope I'll be able to see them again.

5 out of 5 stars There is still hope for Rock and Roll!.......2006-06-14

Thank heavens for Program the Dead. Saw them live in Chicago, and was blown away. I'm 20 and listen to a lot different music. I'm always on the look out for good rock, which there seems to little of these days. They did a great rendition of the Doors "Hello, I love you" They have a very new and and different sound. Think the intelligence of the Muse, the open melody of Incubus, and the raw sound of The Vines. Still reflecting back to some of favorite bands like Iggy and the Stooges and The Cult! They use a lot of apocolyptic imagery, setting dark tones with a poetic flare, about their views on morality and society. It's very sexy and so is the ablum art.

4 out of 5 stars Politcal Rave Rock!!!.......2005-10-27

What a great album. This CD has hints of a lot of great bands: KillRadio, Rage Against the Machine, Filter, Red Tape, and a little Ours. Its political/existentialist rock to its (almost) finest. Low Altitude is a major (Universal Records) disguised as an Indie, but thats good. B/C this album has the muscle to develop and grow.

At times the music sounds a bit overproduced, like most major-label debuts; it has more then just a guitar-bass-drum band sound. That shouldnt stop you from enjoying it. This music really cant be tagged musically, so I guess it would pave its own way. Check out tracks: 2,3,5,8 and 11.
