(Self – released)
2009. EP CD
punk/rock/ska
USA
Autor: Branimir Lokner

Voice Of Addiction su noviji akt na lokalnoj Chicago, Illinois i, generalno, USA punk/post punk/underground sceni. “Re-evolution” je njihova debitantska ponuda, a grupa je od strane nekoliko nacionalnih magazina prepoznata kao bend koji obećava. Na neki svoj način, mladi muzičari iz sastava pokušavaju da vrate stari punk nacin razmišljanja, sisteme vrednosti i psihologiju. Ne mogu reći da su pod uticajem britanskog talasa, pošto je njihov pristup više orijentisan ka 80′s/90′s tendencijama, i jasnije su izražene komparacije sa USA aktovima iz pomenutog perioda, no ponudili su i svoje autohtono viđenje.

Njihova muzika je sačinjena od punk, rock i ska elemenata, ali melodični tragovi su vidljivi preko kompletnog ponudjenog materijala. Momci iz benda, takodje, dele sličan izvodjački entuzijazam, a skrivena optimistička poruka provejava kroz ovde čute pesme. Završni song “Martyr” ujedno bi mogao biti i najubedljiviji.

Ocena: 7,5 / 10

Voice Of Addiction are newer act on local Chicago, Illinois and USA punk/post punk/underground scene. “Re-evolution” is a band’s first offering, and group has received some positive reactions from national press. In its own way, a young musicians from band tries to establish old punk ethos and psychology. I can not say that thay are influental by the British wave, cos’ its approach are more orientire to 80′s/90′s period and also influences from USA acts from mentioned era are clearlier, but they have also offered own views.

Their music comphrises elements of punk/rock and ska, but melodic traces are evident in practically each track from album. A members from band also shares evident performing enthusiashm, and one hidden optimistic message passed through present materials. A closing track “Martyr” could be a favourable one.
