FLYLEAF Self Titled LP 2005 Octone Records Tracks Include: I'M SO SICK, FULLY ALIVE, PERFECT, CASSIE, SORROW, I'M SORRY, ALL AROUND ME, RED SAM, THERE FOR YOU, BREATHE TODAY   Can it possibly get any better? I am waiting with baited breath for more of this band's music! Lacey Mosley's voice blends incredibly flawlessly with the band's unique brand of metal music. The perfect blend of feminine beauty and the beast of unforgiving metal music! A positive message inside the music of a rock band, a rare combination in this day and age. Lacey's agonizing growls could give Otep a run for her money on tracks like Breathe Today, Cassie and I'm So Sick. You can almost taste the frustration and anguish littered amongst the heavey music and painfully honest lyrics. To quote the band's bio, "Flyleaf confront past traumas to heal old scars and prove in the process that hope shines brighter than despair." Lacey's vocals range from angelic and beautiful to down right scathing and aggressive., confronting the personal neglect and abuse the music deals with. Flyleaf’s music is probably best described by Lacey herself. “Our music is passionate and on purpose. It’s angry and sad and urgent and loving. It’s about our experiences and passions and how we have overcome. Our message is to encourage the hopeless people to have hope, and the apathetic people to stand up in their destinies and purposes and believe in something good and world changing.” Their music is filled with pathos and positivity all in one breath. When watching this band perform, it’s hard to see how one could not be inspired. http://www.flyleafmusic.com/ http://www.myspace.com/flyleaf http://www.octonerecords.com
