Album Review: From Ashes To New – Blackout

Blackout is a solid album complemented by strong hooks, as well as a familiar lyrical focus that fans have appreciated to this day. Its concept can be interpreted in two ways, as either the catalyst for a dark foreboding, or in aptly representing a time when interpersonal relationships had a profound effect on our outlook. Whatever the case, the release of the album, as well as the prior buzz generated from its singles, is evidence that the flame of modern rock continues to burn bright.
