PAINT IT BLACK - Paradise (Vinyl)

Dan Yemin is the only man in punk rock whose bands get
louder and faster with age. As the guitarist in hardcore
legends Lifetime and Kid Dynamite, Yemin has been known
for bringing a keen sense of melody to even the heaviest
hitting of his songs. Paint It Black, formed from the
ashes of Kid Dynamite and the result of Yemin's brush
with death and subsequent renewed desire to make music.
"On Paradise, the band's second album, Paint It Black release
a lot of the tension throughout the album with a
reliance on melodic sensibilities -- guitar and vocal
lines with interesting half-time chumpdowns -- which
may be a result of Paradise being produced and recorded
by J. Robbins. These are introspective songs of identity
against a backdrop of global breakdown and corporate
manipulation. Paint It Black offer up fast beats, thick
chords, and passionate lyrics on Paradise, and shine on
tracks with vocal exchanges between Dan Yemin and Andy
Nelson, such as "Pink Slip," "Athiests in Foxholes," and
"Labor Day." Paint It Black have always had a good sense
of keeping the good fight going with passion and rage
in their lyrics and delivery, while mixing in memorable
musical elements. Paradise will make you get up, think
about your situation, and fight for better days. "
