"A style that rivals Nirvana, Pearl Jam, etc," says the publicity blurb. Well... there's more metal than grunge here. Never mind, for the band's Tim Bushong and Greg Purlee write good songs and with studio maestros John and Dino Elefante gating the guitars until they sound like they'd slice through concrete, 'Soak Your Brain' is an exciting rock album. Outstanding is the title track ("Dig a little bit deeper/Is it all a game?/Take a swim in the Truth/Now soak your brain.") It may not be Hemmingway but it kicks.You wanted to know what happened to these guys. Well Tim Bushong went on to form The Channel Surfers and toured again. He is now in the little town of Syracuse, Indiana with a studio at his home is keeping busy recording all kinds of national acts for the big boys in Nashville. Lovewar did record 20 more tracks that I Do Not have that was never released you should try and get them they are good but not as good as Soak. Even Though they are often Compare With King's X Groove and Extreme commercialism. Together with the big production of John & Dino Elephante, it makes for a great listen. I wonder what happened to this band after this album as I never heard anything about them again(http://www.holymetalrob.com)
