KADDISFLY
Buy Our Intension; We'll Buy You A Unicorn [Hopeless]
3 Discs
[Fans of At The Drive-In and Project 86 take note.]
Oregon's Kaddisfly has joined the latest wave of free-spirited indie bands to fuse some life back into rock music. Taking a jam-band format to a modern progressive sound while adding melody and passion, Kaddisfly fills its sound with youthful passion throughout each song. This is not another pre-calculated, whiny emocore band in any sense. They show that they can write emotion-driven music without expressing the same one repeatedly. The main focal point here is frontman Chris Ruff's melodic yet expressive vocal style. Whether he hits the mid-level notes or simply sings, he creates a mood that is often otherwise lost within a band's sound. The band's musicianship is strong and compliments Ruff's vocals without overbearing any part of the overall sound. Kaddisfly has created a powerful record of songs unequivocal to many of their contemporaries' releases.
