Inevitably, any new material from Sonny, Marcos, and Traa (Wuv is on a sabbatical) is going to be compared to <em>Satellite<\/em>, where they were at peak form. So, the question is posed- how does <em>Veritas <\/em>rank in their discography? Not to give away the farm, but it\u2019s great stuff. The band seems to have tapped into that mojo that brought <em>Satellite <\/em>to the top of the charts. The band has a very varied following- their fans are not just fans of metal, but nu metal, hip hop, alt rock, and even reggae. Thus hitting a bullseye for all those fans is that much harder, than- say- dialing in a great metal album. The album\u2019s title <em>Veritas<\/em>, meaning truth and its frequent theme of not being afraid are just what the Divine Physician has ordered for these turbulent times, but album art of a disheveled blond kid with his\/her eyes burned out (and more of the same inside the liner notes) begs explanation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The album opens with a firecracker \u201cDrop\u201d featuring Randy Blythe from Lamb of God that will get the crowd moving, proclaiming that \u201cif you play with fire, you\u2019re gonna get burned.\u201d \u201cI Got That\u201d is the album\u2019s standout track- perfectly showcasing Sonny\u2019s hip hop swagger over a heavy bottom end, some eerie quasi-Cinderella guitar tones and heavy breathing on the chorus, and the confession \u201cI ain\u2019t never scared.\u201d The band would name their tour the I Got That tour. \u201cAfraid to Die\u201d is the kind of \u201cYouth of a Nation\u201d anthem that has the crowd shouting along \u201cWe ain\u2019t afraid to die!\u201d \u201cDead Right\u201d is an intuitive analysis of today\u2019s society. When we can\u2019t disagree with each other civilly anymore \u201can eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind.\u201d \u201cBreaking\u201d features lots of changes in intensity. \u201cNo one could ever serve two masters.\u201d \u201cLay Me Down (Roo\u2019s Song)\u201d is a heavy rocker with a singable melodic chorus. \u201cI Won\u2019t Bow Down\u201d starts with \u201cthe top of every mountain is the bottom of another\u201d for a perfect mashup of hip hop and metal, courtesy of Sonny\u2019s boxer swagger. \u201cThis is My Life\u201d teaches us to make the most of our lives in true hard music fashion. \u201cSo it\u2019s ok if we ain\u2019t ok. We\u2019ll make it through cuz there\u2019s a better way.\u201d \u201cLies We Tell Ourselves\u201d sounds like it could have charted on hard alt rock radio in the 90\u2019s. \u201cWe Are One (Our Struggle)\u201d is another classic P.O.D. anthem reminding us that \u201cTomorrow isn\u2019t promised so today we\u2019re coming up.\u201d The album closer is \u201cFeeling Strange,\u201d another song with changes in intensity and a commentary on society, leaving the listener with \u201ceyes on the sky.\u201d The album is bookended by a recording of a female voice reciting something including the word veritas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not to knock the band\u2019s last few albums, but <em>Veritas<\/em> is easily their best album in the two decades plus since the height of their fame. Don\u2019t write P.O.D. off yet. Making a masterpiece isn\u2019t capturing lightning in a bottle, but sometimes it happens when an album perfectly captures the time of its release- a zeitgeist. Not to wax philosophical here. Could <em>Veritas<\/em> be that zeitgeist? Only time will tell. My wife and youngest son caught the band\u2019s tour at our local club and enjoyed it. Every other singer is using a wireless mic, but instead Sonny uses the heaviest red cord he can find and uses it like a stage prop, prowling around the stage, cracking the mic cord like a whip. Our interview request was denied by the band\u2019s management. (Mascot Records) \u2013 4 out of 5 stars.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>P.O.D.\u2019s last album Circles was released in 2019, and before that The Awakening in
