Drawing Black Lines Review

Like all the truly great bands, Project 86 has been able to have a constantly evolving sound that displays excellent musicianship, songwriting, and diversity. Songs like Chimes, Souix Lane Spirits, and Hollow Again are gripping lyrical and musical experiences. They tell a story and provide a soundtrack that sends chills down my spine like few other bands can. I can easily overlook the fact that, like every musician, Project 86 has changed their style a little as they have experienced life and grown more versatile with their skills. Every one of their albums has been amazing, and though I have high hopes for "And The Rest Will Follow...", Drawing Black Lines is definitely (up to now) that one definitive Project 86 album that sets them far above the competition. Definitely their heaviest and darkest album to date, and the "chill down your spine" factor is up there with the best of them. It is my favorite album behind Tool's Lateralus.
