![]() ![]() Now, take that “funky” groove and add the drum work of Sim Cain, which would fit well with any prog-rock outfit, and you have the makings of a truly unique rhythm section. Dipping and diving, adding the necessary low end to give the proper amount of weight for Rollins’ rage filled vocals. In fact, throughout the song, the bass work is all over the place. Bassist Andrew Weiss provides a bass line that adds more funk than punk, yet. Underlying the riff, listen to individual musicians. The tune opens with the entire band groovin’ on a heavily distorted blues line before Rollins himself chimes in with a hint of melodic vocals. Take “Grip,” for instance, and revel in the musicianship, all workman –like, wreaking havoc on the aural senses. And, that’s probably because this is anything but a hardcore punk rock album! This album is hopped up rock n’ roll turned up to eleven, just so the notes are that much more distorted and that much more intense. The End of Silence is jam packed with music that shreds any preconceived notion of what hardcore punk is all about. It’s not just the lyrical content that I’ve found amazing about this album. ![]()
