[.ca] Worship and Tribute

From Amazon.com:
At the vanguard of hardcore's evolution stand five Long Island-born straight-edgers who sport a progressive approach to punk rock on this fantastic second album. Frontman Daryl Palumbo's lyrically adventurous songs ("The Gillette Cavalcade of Sports," "Trailer Park Jesus") wage war on cultural orthodoxy, his rocky, undulating vocals morphing between a raw-nerve croon and a tortured shriek that's sharp enough to cut glass. The band differ from their nu-metal and conventional hardcore peers in the arrangements: tracks like "Mu Empire" and "Cosmopolitan Bloodloss" combine Faith No More-style sweep with a complex, post-hardcore structure that puts Fugazi to shame. "Ape Dos Mil" reins in the pure noise as guitarists Justin Beck and Todd Weinstock turn down and wring shimmering walls of ambience out of their instruments and Palumbo weaves a tale of obsessive love. Glassjaw are a thoroughly uncompromising band, as fearlessly individualistic as At the Drive-In and every bit as good. Worship and Tribute presents the new hardcore heroes-in-waiting. --Louis Pattison

Chronique amazon.fr:
Le précédent Everything You Ever Wanted To Know About Silence était prometteur ; Worship & Tribute exacerbe toutes les qualités que l'on avait pu y déceler, dans tous les registres. D'abord celui de la maturité, qui se traduit par des paroles moins nombrilistes sinon plus universalistes ; ensuite, celui de la musique. Et c'est là que la surprise est totale. Les changements de tempo d'un morceau à l'autre passent sans anicroche. Le metal furieux de "Cosmopolitan Blood Loss" trouve un écho idéal dans une étonnante ballade comme "Cavalcade". Que l'amateur se rassure toutefois : cet album n'offre que très peu de temps morts. L'énergie, entre punk et hardcore, ne fait jamais défaut à Daryl Palumbo et aux siens. --Hervé Comte

simply the BEST band:
take my word... this is one of the best cd's ull ever find. the first cd of Glassjaw is great also. anyways, this cd has dynamics, great drumming and dope bass. if u wanna listen to some hardcore stuff, THIS IS IT! get it. u won't be disaapointed.

new music that is actually good:
I've been a fan for a while and I was definitely not disappointed by worship and tribute. Sure it's not nearly as hard as the first album but it does have it's heavier parts (stuck pig, the beginning of mu empire) but the album is so much more melodic than the first that I feel it is a much stronger effort. I see nothing but good things in the future for glassjaw and head automatica looks promising. By the way for all you people you dig the gilette cavalcade of sports, the part in the middle/end part where there is the play by play announcer type stuff, that was taken from a frank zappa song off of joe's garage called "fembot in a wet t shirt" you should check it out. Zappa was a huge influence on daryl and is an amazing musician.

Righhhtt:
I just wanted to say: What kind of site would do something like put the all the title for The Used instead of GLASSJAW... come on please!!!

Mistaken Identity:
Okay, the site has posted The Used track listing rather than Glassjaw: Glassjaw - Worship And Tribute's track listing are as follows: 1. Tip Your Bartender 2. Mu Empire 3. Cosmopolitan Blood Loss 4. Ape Dos Mil 5. Pink Roses 6. Must Have Run All Day 7. Stuck Pig 8. Radio Cambodia 9. Cavalcade 10. Trailer Park Jesus 11. Two Tabs of Mescaline
