I Free You 4:18 11. South for the Winter 7:10 ------ 57:16 After hitting their peak with 1999Æs Everything You Want (yielding ôYouÆre a Godö and the chart-topping title cut), Washington, D.C.-based (now L.A.-planted) alt-rock band Vertical Horizon slid into a cove of safe adult contemporary rock and somehow managed to produce a few discs that rode the waves of Sugar Ray and Train. Technically, their beefier rock kicks a little more ass than that, but the winds of change failed to give their wings any flight. Their contract with RCA ended in 2003, leaving the band absorbed in the independent market. With drummer Ed Toth and original member Keith Kane leaving, the group needed a pivotal reboot. Echoes From The Underground, the bandÆs striking come-hither album, could be the rites of salvation they need. For starters, ôBroken Over You,ö the albumÆs lead single, runs like a glorified rock romp containing reverberating electric guitar chord strokes and above-average AC throbs. ItÆs a worthwhile performance that remedies those who absconded from VH due to much of the safeness aboard 2009Æs Burning the Days and the six-year absence that followed 2003Æs Go. Even with all the arena-ready stamina stamped on its display, thereÆs a heavy burden embedded in the lyrics as a salted love affair crumbles within minutes. ôPart of me knows that part of you is broken/ÆCause I am broken too, IÆm broken over you,ö lead singer Matt Scannell echoes with a confident radio-ready croon. That near-perfection in creating mainstream rock confetti also documents the album opener ôNever Let Me Down,ö a composition that Scannell shares co-writing duties with Richard Marx. Although itÆs top heavy with high-decibel guitar strums and even some psychedelic distortion from the very top of the VH isnÆt afraid to test the waters, which explains the seriousness of the album title. The album plays like a movie, opening with raging rock and then settling into an euphoric collection of inventive balladry. Giving off hints of a concept album, thereÆs an underlying theme of sadness and troubled love throughout the course of the disc. Unlike most albums where the back of the disc fades into mediocrity, VH breaks new ground and keeps anticipation aloft. ôLovestruck,ö a song that plays like a slow jam off of Daft PunkÆs Random Access Memories or some lush Peter Gabriel soundscape, is entranced by its glorious electronica overlay, giving fans something totally different from their usual. The first half of ôFrostö places careful synths atop ScannellÆs melancholy (ôAll the leaves are green on every forget-me-not/But all that we may have been is covered in frostö), ultimately shaping what sounds like a seductive piece of æ80Æs radio rock. VH then turns up the fire on the second and third rounds of its chorus before fading the song fades into a triumphant sunset set off with a subdued trumpet and synth strings. Probably the most ambitious of the offerings is ôInstamatic,ö which shows off the genius of Rush drummer Neil Peart. Decorated with various time changes, dogfighting guitars, killer drum execution and one muscular vamp (ôNow youÆre gonna runö), itÆs almost impossible to hear this and not imagine it as an epic encore to their future sets. And like hearing the Foo Fighters going full blast, this happens to be the bandÆs best wild card of arena-rock indulgence and probably the most boisterous theyÆve ever sounded on a studio album. The seven-minute closer ôSouth for the Winter,ö ôEvermoreö and the easily accessible ôConsolationö are also wholesome additions to the albumÆs treasure of versatile tracks. With hardly a selection that feels like conventional album filler, Scannell and Co. culls out their best and most accomplished project to date. ThatÆs saying a lot for an indie album that was practically funded by crowdsourcing.                                                                                                     ▀▀░                                                                                                                ░▄▀                                  ▄█▀                                             ░▄           ░▐███░               ▀█░▄▄▄                    ▄░       ▀█░░                      ░           ▀▀░                                         ▄  ░                                          ▄     █          ▀                 ▄              ▄█▄ ▄ ██▄         ▀░▀     ▄         ▀                ▀░▀   ▀         ▀▀████████▀░                   ▀ ▄      ░                      ░░       ░▀██▀                    ▀██▄                ▄               ▐     ░      ░  █▀▄    ▐▓▓▌   █                    ▄   ▄▄       ░                    ▄▄▌█  ▄▄▓▓▓▀  ▄                      ▄ ▀   ████      ░                   ▐███▌  ░ ░                  ▄██▀     ▄▄██▄▄           ░           ▄▄███▄▄ ▄  ▓                         ▐▓▓▌  ░   ▓████▄        ▀          ▀    ▓█████▓  ▀ ▄                           ▀▓▓▓▄▄   ▐▓███ ▌                       ▌█████      ▀██▄   ▄                ░▄  ▀▀██▄▐████ ▌▐ ▌▓                ▓▐ ▌█▓███       ▐▓▓▌ ▀░▀           █    █  ░ ░▓▐████▄▌▐ ▌▌ ▌▌▐ ▌▐▄ ▐▐·▌▌▐▐ ▐ ▄█████    ▄▄▓▓▓▀                            ▓ ▓▐████ ▌▐ ▌▌ ▌▌▐ ▌▐▐▓▐▐ ▌▌▐▐ ▐ ▌█████ ▄█▓▀▀  ▄░ ░            ▄▄▄░      ▓     ░▐████▄▌▐▄▌▌▄▌▌▐ ▌▐▐▄▐▐▄▌▄▐▐▓▐▄▌█████ ▓     █               █████      ▐▄░   ▓▐████ ▌▐ ▌▌ ▌▌▐ ▌▐▐ ▐▐ ▌▌▐▐▓▐ ▌█████   ▓░   ▄         ▐▓    █▓███░    ▓▐█░▄▄  ▐████ ▌▐ ▌▌ ▌▌▐ ▌▐█ ▐▐ ▌▌▐▐ ▐ ▌█████    ▄██▄ ▀ ▄      █▌    █████▓   ██▀█▀▀   ▐█▓██ ▌▐ ▌▌ ▌▌▐ ▌▐▐ ▐▐ ▌▌▐▐ ▐ ▌███▓█   ▐█▓██▓   ▀██▄ ▀██▀   █████▓░    ▓█▌    ▐████▓▌▐▄▌▌▄▌▌▄ ▌▐▐▄▐▐▓▌▌▐▐▄▐▄▌█████   ▐████▌    ▐▓▓▌▓█▌   ▄█▓███▄░     ▐█▄▓  ▐████ ▌▐ ▌▌ ▌▌▐ ▌▐▐ ▐▐ ▌▌▐▐ ▐ ▀█▓███   ▐████▌ ▄▄▓▓▓▀  █▓  ████████▄▄▓ ▄█████▌ ▐████ ▌▐ ▌▌ ▌▌▐ ▌▐▐ ▐▐ ▌▌▐▐▓▐ ▌█████   ▓████▌░ ▄▄   ▄▄█▄▄ ██████████████████████████████▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄     █████  ░██▓████▓██▓▓██████ █░█████▄▀█▄░████████▄▄▄▄▄██████▓████████░██████▄▄▄▄▄███████░▄██░█░█████████ ▓██▀█████▓░░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░ ░░░▓███▓█████ ████████▓ ▓██▓▐████▓ ▓██ █░███ █░██████▓ ███▓▄▀█▓ ▓ ▓█████▓███████ ▓███ ░▄▄▄▓████▓ ▓████████▓ ▓██████▓ ▓████▓
