A Static Lullaby - Rattlesnake!



Holy F*cking Sh!t A Static Lullaby have stepped their game up. Rattlesnake! is their fourth studio album and basically a quick kick right in the face. Honestly I think they have found their sound and prove they are still a force to to recon with. 2006's Self-titled album showed ASL going back to their sound on ...Don't Forget To Breathe and 2005's Faso Latido was a departure for them, but still a good album by ASL.

Rattlesnake! is hard hitting, quick, and an ray of lyrics that leave you wanting more yet feeling like a Rattlesnake just bit you on yo ass. You can definitely tell that deciding to stay a four-piece was the best decision for them and creativity they are on they are on fire.

This is their second release on Fearless Records and you can tell that being free from Colombia Records (Sorry MP I know you tried but the world wasn't ready for ASL) and you can tell giving them the freedom to create what they want pays off.

Rattlesnake! might have slithered it's way into my favorite album of 2008.

5/5. It's hard for a band to continue with a sound and flow through out their entire record and ASL kept it going on Rattlesnake!
