Album Of The Day: With Shivering Hearts We Wait by Blindside

Album Art of Blindside's With Shivering Hearts We Wait album - On a very calm lake or ocean that stretches to the horizon, a young man is standing shirtless in the water up to his waist, and his hands are outstretched on each side just so that his fingers are touching the top of she water. He's looking away from the camera towards the never-ending water and the horizon, which has ha bit of a pink hue to it like it is magic hour. Printed in the bottom middle is the band's name in white text, followed by a small 'x' and then the album title in the same font.

Released 15 years ago today, this is the sixth studio album from Swedish-based metal/post-hardcore band Bindside. Though they were a bit more well-known earlier when on Solid State Records and Elektra's imprint run by friends P.O.D., this album is still pretty good. It definitely rocks, and some tracks like "Monster On The Radio" and "Our Love Saves Us" have electronic elements and not just the heavy guitars you would expect from them. Lead singer Christian Lindskog's vocals jump seamlessly from singing to screaming, and the band sounds great throughout. It's not my favorite album from them, but it was definitely fun to hear from them again, and I hope they make a comeback one of these years as they were a great band on the heavier end of music I enjoy.
