Satelite

Reseña del editor Genre-smashing hard rock combo P.O.D. are back with SATELLITE, the highly-anticipated follow-up to 1999's RIAA platinum-certified Atlantic debut, THE FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENTS OF SOUTHTOWN. Much of the new album's lyrical content - at turns powerful, passionate, and poignant - deals with the band's outspoken belief in expressions of spiritual adventure and affirmation. Musically speaking, SATELLITE finds the SoCal-based quartet - Sonny: vocals; Marcos: guitars; Traa: bass; Wuv: drums - progressing by remarkable leaps and bounds. Throughout the record, P.O.D. incorporate a variety of new textures and styles into their sonic arsenal, from hip hop and dub reggae, to hardcore punk and heavy metal. Tienda The multi-hyphenated (rap-metal-hip-hop-reggae) foursome P.O.D. enjoyed indie success as a popular Christian metal band before their 1999 major-label debut, The Fundamental Elements of Southtown, sold platinum, establishing P.O.D. as a secular sensation. Featuring the soaring single "Alive," the San Diego quartet's sophomore effort, Satellite, is even more a part of the nu-metal mainstream than its predecessor. Throughout, front man Sonny is more rapper than singer, especially on rhythmically forward, Rage Against the Machine-like songs such as "Boom," "Masterpiece Conspiracy," and the melodic yet mosh-worthy "The Messenjah." With positive, spiritual, and personal lyrics (several songs, including the title track, were influenced by the death of Sonny's mother), Satellite runs the gamut from lilting to intensely aggro, often within one song. In a nod to P.O.D.'s influences, special guests include Jamaican icon Eek-A-Mouse on "Ridiculous" and Bad Brains legend HR on "Without Jah, Nothin'." This cool reggae, meshed with offbeat punk power, is placed alongside mellower midtempo rockers, including "Ghetto," to round out a varied and stellar album. --Katherine Turman
