Our Take

Review:
FAITHFUL BREATH's latest album "Skolin" is a musical rollercoaster ride that will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about prog rock. With a sound that can only be described as a cross between Queen and a kazoo solo, this album is both bizarre and captivating.

The opening track, "Riffs for Days," sets the tone for the rest of the album with its relentless guitar shredding and nonsensical lyrics. It's a bold choice for a lead single, but one that pays off in spades. The band's willingness to take risks and push boundaries is evident throughout "Skolin," and it's what sets them apart from their peers.

Tracks like "Funky Town," with its funky bassline and disco-inspired rhythm, and "Space Jam 2.0," a seven-minute epic that transports you to another dimension, showcase FAITHFUL BREATH's versatility and creativity. You never quite know what to expect next, and that's what makes this album such a wild and enjoyable ride.

While some may find the band's experimental approach off-putting, for those willing to embrace the weird and wonderful world of FAITHFUL BREATH, "Skolin" is a must-listen. So buckle up, turn up the volume, and prepare to be blown away by this truly unique musical experience. Trust us, you won't regret it.

About the artist

Faithful Breath

FAITHFUL BREATH is the kind of band that makes you stop in your tracks and wonder, "What the heck am I listening to?" Hailing from the depths of Germany, this group of musical misfits has been swirling around the heavy metal scene since the 1970s, leaving a trail of confused listeners in their wake. With their blend of prog rock, hard rock, and a touch of medieval folk, FAITHFUL BREATH is a band that defies categorization. Their music is a sonic rollercoaster, careening from blistering riffs to delicate acoustic passages with wild abandon. Just when you think you've got them pegged, they'll throw in a flute solo that will make you question everything you thought you knew about rock music. Despite their eclectic sound and penchant for musical experimentation, FAITHFUL BREATH has never quite broken through to mainstream success. Perhaps it's their refusal to conform to any one genre, or maybe it's their unapologetically weird lyrics about dragons, wizards, and other fantastical creatures. Whatever the reason, this band marches to the beat of their own drum, and we can't help but admire them for it. So, if you're looking for something a little bit different, a little bit strange, and a whole lot of fun, give FAITHFUL BREATH a listen. Who knows, you might just find yourself on a musical journey unlike anything you've experienced before.
