The Stuart Patti Project – TSP Squared
The Stuart Patti Project’s latest offering, “TSP Squared,” is traveling you into the realms of Christian rock, drawing inspiration from the likes of P.O.D., Skillet, and Brian Welch (Korn). Infused with the essence of late 1990s and early 2000s alternative metal and hard rock, the album takes listeners on a dynamic ride, echoing the spirit of a nostalgic era. One of the highlight features of the album is its ability to create a mood that hovers between alternative metal and hard rock, reminiscent of the sounds that dominated the late 1990s and early 2000s. The influence of bands like Korn is evident, especially in the first track, “Lamb of God.” This song opens as a slow, atmospheric piece, gradually building into a crescendo where raw guitars burst onto the landscape. Fans of Korn’s intense and dramatic style will undoubtedly find this track appealing, with its dramatic narration adding an extra layer of depth to the overall experience. The production quality of the tracks on “TSP Squared” stands out as a notable strength. The album competently holds its ground when compared to the official works of the bands that served as inspiration for The Stuart Patti Project. The raw energy of the guitars, coupled with a balanced mix of vocals and instrumentation, contributes to a polished sound that is both engaging and authentic. For enthusiasts of the 2000s hard rock scene and those who appreciate the nuances of Nu metal, “TSP Squared” is sure to strike a chord. The album successfully captures the essence of a cool era while infusing it with a contemporary touch, making it a worthwhile addition to any playlist.
