CD Review:
Artist: Soul Distraction
Title: The Truth Pill
Website: Soul Distraction Official Website
Style: Rock
Rating: 8.8 out of 10
By Senior Writer C.W. Ross
In 2006, guitarist Rich Cornelison and bassist Marty Mitchell got together with Guitarist Don Lindner and Drummer Tim Scrivner to form a band. They added the final piece of the puzzle when they found heavy metal vocalist Elsa Faith while searching through MySpace.com.
Elsa, who comes from Singapore, has that special combination that most lead singers can only hope for, looks hot enough to melt the paint off of a car with the singing talent to back it up.
The band hails from Southern Washington State and The Truth Pill is their full-length debut release.
The band lists their musical influences as, Black Sabbath, The Cult, Guns & Roses, Alice In Chains and Megadeth.
Don't expect a copycat type sound from the band though they add their own uniqueness to their sound. The band adds powerful guitar hooks and killer riffs to punch up their sound, while thunderous drum beats control the tempo.
While most of the songs are real rockers the band does slow it down for with an occasional more melodic or ballad style of song.
All of the different musical parts come together well in their songs and Elsa's vocals act as the glue holding it all together.
She shows a wide range of vocal styles from soft and sweet to down and dirty in true rock style.
The song lyrics are gritty and deal with real life issues including love and all the ways it can go wrong. So you'll find some honest thoughts and a few uses of the f-word in the song lyrics.
This band seems to have a really good chemistry that comes through in their music. I'm sure that will be hearing a lot more from them in the future.
