1. Living In Security
2. Illuminate
3. The Damaged
4. Myths, Lies And Crimes
Where Giants Once Stood have released their sophomore album titled "Live Above." This album really feels like a in your face, progressive metal album. It has the same sort of style that a band like August Burns Red or a Suicide Silence would have, so if you like those guys, you could really like this album.They have done a great job on t his album. When looking at the recording quality of this album, the album has been recorded pretty decently. The instrumentation on this album is pretty good as well, the band can certainly play. Now onto the vocals and lyrics, the vocals on this album are very similar to that of For Today with just a hint of being forced. Very good metal vocals that you can pretty much tell what he is saying. With the lyrics, the band has decided to go the route of talking about the damaged, the beaten, the bruised and trying to get away from that to live in a happy place. The guys have done a great job on the lyrics and these do have a good message. If you are looking for a single to this album, give the song "Living In Security" your attention as it is a great song on the album and really shows how the feel of this album is. When Giants Once Stood have made a metal album that really shows off their skills. This is one to certainly listen to if you are an ABR fan. We can't wait to see what the next album sounds like. Listen to this album to decide for yourself what you think of it.
