Sevendust Waffle Album: Home
Genres: Metal
A kaleidoscopic funk-mental concoction that makes the Chili Peppers sound like strung-out has-beens. |

Home, Sevendust's second CD, is kind of a hit-and-miss affair, but this stand-out track from the album truly shows what kind of stuff these Atalanta dudes are capable of. "Waffle" draws you in with an ominous, phased-out guitar intro, then bashes your skull with a flurry of intense powerchords. Lajon Witherspoon croons sweetly during the verses, then lowers the boom for a hard-funk chorus that sounds like a lost Living Color outtake, only better. "Give me your light/Make my life worth something more," he wails in desperation, and it's hard not to relate on some level. The whole thing adds up to a cosmic and kaleidoscopic funk-metal anthem that's a damn sight better than anything the Chili Peppers have done in over a decade.
