WHY YOU'RE A COMPLETE FUCKING RETARD IF YOU STILL THINK JANUARY 6 WAS ANYTHING OTHER THAN IN INSIDE JOB ORCHESTRATED BY NANCY PELOSI AND FBI

Libtard short-haired-lesbo fed planted a pipe bomb which caused the January 6 psyop that many of you fucking retards liked to try and claim was "worse than 9/11."  We all knew you were a total retard and here's the proof. Nancy Pelosi bamboozled you, and shame on you for ever thinking she wasn't. Again, you're a retard. Learn how to not be so damn retarded before you ever open your stupid little moouth again, or flap your thumbs across your phone trying to repost some ignoratn ass bullshit used by enemies of our country to weaponize your misguided "empathy" against your own country. Because the very people who weaponized you on their behalf will not hesitate to weaponize against you once they have control. And those of us who you tried to label as "toxic" and "bigot" won't be there to protect you when it happens. Even if I am right there in the gulag next to you, I won't fucking help you, based on everything you did and said t...

Album Reviews: Rise From The Embers by The Softer Side

 The Softer Side is back in spectacular fashion with their latest release Rise From The Embers. This trio led by Brian Crick from Jacksonville, Florida has recently become a quartet with the addition of former Yellowcard bassist Peter Mosley. It has been 8 years since their last release but, you know what they say; "good things come to those who wait."

The E.P. starts off with a short (24 seconds) intro track titled "Ashes of Recollection" which features a foreboding quote from William Manchester. Like the embers of a flame, the tension builds until it bursts into the albums title track "Rise From The Embers."

Like the mythological phoenix which rises from the ashes of it's predecessor with renewed vigor; "with the sunrise there is hope / rise from the embers still aglow / tomorrow will be better than today." What emerges from the flame is as equally powerful as it is beautiful.

The music is well written and the lyrics are both catchy and meaningful. "Nothing To Say" is perhaps one of the most powerful songs on the album with a message along the lines of "Face Down" by fellow FL pop-punk/rock artists Red Jumpsuit Apparatus."

The vocals are smooth and incredibly listenable. Our only complaint is that we want to hear more! However, despite being labeled as an E.P. the album clocks in at a little under half an hour long (25 minutes). So we can't complain really!

Our Score:
9/10 - A solid release with powerful messages that will leave you wanting more.
