Non ci siamo proprio. Basta, non ce la faccio più! Ecco qui l'ennesimo gruppo rock melodico tutto basato su schemi triti e ritriti senza assolutamente nulla di nuovo da dire. Mi duole ammetterlo, soprattutto perchè io sono uno che odia stroncare i dischi, ma le debolezze di questo "Superkala" sono troppo evidenti!
Insomma, persino chi di musica rock è completamente a digiuno potrebbe accorgersi che la band in questione non solo non ha un briciolo di personalità, rifacendosi a sonorità strausate da chissà quanti gruppi, ma dispone di un songwriting non tanto scontato quanto ridicolo. È come se dei Creed in pessima forma avessero deciso in comune accordo di creare il disco più brutto e insensato della loro carriera!
In fondo, se proprio vogliamo salvarli in qualche modo, possiamo dire che le melodie non sono poi così male e si lasciano ascoltare ma... diamine, è il minimo per canzoni rock di questo tipo! Forse "Wall Of Shame" è la traccia che mi ha convinto di più, ma già dalla successiva "Caught Of The Sun" si nota tutta la banalità del gruppo. "Different Of Opinion", poi, non so perchè ma più l'ascolto e più la trovo patetica... Al limite potremmo salvare un altro paio di canzoni, ma in ogni caso il disco non riesce a sollevarsi in nessun modo da terra, purtroppo...
Il cantante, poi, è così freddo che sembra quasi cercare d'impedirti di provare qualche emozione ascoltando il tutto! Un vero peccato per una band che forse, impegnandosi maggiormente, avrebbe potuto tirar fuori qualcosa di almeno decente...

01 Wall of Shame (04:02)
Something has happened to your world
Can you imagine you could
There's too much pressure on you now
Why you would ever throw away
What's been given to you
Woke up and nothing's even there
Now you're falling too far away
It is hard
Sit inside your wall of shame
Believing what's forgotten
You make it hard to find the world
Sit inside your wall of shame
And nothing even matters
What can you say but I'm to blame
When trouble lingers on your mind
You wait; but dig in deeper
There's no more room for honesty
Breathe in the vapors of your lies
Just when you're choking on them
These thoughts are spinning 'round your head
You're falling too far away
It is hard
Sit inside your wall of shame
Believing what's forgotten
You make it hard to find the world
Sit inside your wall of shame
And nothing even matters
What can you say but I'm to blame
You're falling too far away
It is hard
Sit inside your wall of shame
Believing what's forgotten
You make it hard to find the world
Sit inside your wall of shame
And nothing even matters
What can you say but I'm to blame
02 Caught in the Sun (04:50)
You're my distance, destination of choice
I'd give anything just to hear your voice
I could pass you on the street without saying a word
Most times, I miss the voice that goes unheard
What If I missed you, you got caught in the sun
What If I did something never to be enough
People everywhere how could I be sure
If it's you that I have been looking for
What would it take for me to be comfortable
With you, with me you're the chosen one
What If I missed you, you got caught in the sun
What If I did something never to be enough
You are there for me this I hope and pray
You will wait for me I won't be too late
What If I missed you, you got caught in the sun
What If I did something never to be enough
Will you wait for me or will I be too late this time
You are there for me this I hope and pray
03 Difference of Opinion (04:02)
I see my life is taking time away from me
Chains that bind the things I want to change
I can't break free
I told you so, now I can't let go
Of the things I've strived so hard to be
I'm afraid I've come too far
My changing life's been torn apart
But I won't give up on my dreams
I don't think I'll ever see
The things you wanted me to see
I only hope we can be friends - again
Pain, the pain I've felt is growing deep inside of me
I can't imagine what you wanted me to be
What if I fell down; would you pick me up
Would you be there taking stabs at me
05 Remain (03:09)
I feel it coming from a far off place
I need assistance with a change of pace
In my heart now there's an empty space
But you can change it
Bring your heart my way
I've been through this alone before
I know no other way
I wish that I could have the heart to stay
Losing what we started for
Destroyed everything
Remnants of a life with you remain
Don't be alarmed now, I'm not grateful
For all you're given, it's so much bullshit
Run over wisdom, headed straight for deceit
It's rather sad now, what you've done to me
I don't belong here, take me far away
But if we change now
Bring your heart my way
10 After the Fall (03:56)
I am not afraid of you
Look at me, you'll see it's true
You are broken, falling down
And now you're nothing, nothing
This time I want it too much
I just needed time to dust myself off
I can see much further than you
Enough to keep on trying
After the fall
I've waited time and energy
On your foolish pride, you see
You will find in time from me
That you are nothing, nothing
