Sparrows have released their second album titled "Cold Ground." This album follows along the same lines in terms of style and sound that the band came out with on their previous album. The band has a heavy radio rock feel to them which is really awesome. We get the feeling of a band like Thursday or something like Thrice when listening to this album, so if you are into either of these bands, you could like this album. They have done a solid job on this album. When looking at the recording quality of this album, this album has been recorded to a pretty decent level, but could use a little bit more production. The instrumentation on this album is nothing to really get excited over, but the band can play and it does sound good. Now onto the vocals and lyrics, the vocals on this album are not bad, nothing really to write home about, just your typical hard rock singing. He certainly can sing though and he is pretty clear, so you can hear all the words. With the lyrics, the band sings with messages of getting down, being sad, severing all the ties from the negativity and being more positive. They also sing about giving up on things that are not worth the time. Theses are things we think a bunch of people can get behind and relate to. Pretty good job overall. If you are looking for a single to this album, there isn't one, so just pick a song and give it a listen to get the idea of the album. Sparrows have made an album here that continues their sound and gives the band more material to play live. They have gone a solid job making longer songs and having them really rock. We honestly really like this album. Now we just need to see them play more so more people can find out about them. Listen to this album to decide for yourself what you think about it.
