Blessed By A Broken Heart - Pedal To The Metal (2008)




















One thing about modern times; if you live long enough, you get to re-experience the past in sometimes refreshing ways, and sometimes disturbing ways. A lot of hard rock and metal kids now reaching their late teens and early twenties who used to snub the eighties are finding out there's more identification than previously met their floor-scuffing indifference. Certainly there's plenty to jibe the eighties for as there is with any decade, but the joke is now on the twenty-somethings because today's metal has already run smack into dead-end corners that the only way out has been to seek alternate measures to the breakdown-romanced way of things. Or in the case of bands like Sound and Fury and now Montreal's Blessed By a Broken Heart, the answer is to draft past rock theorems in order to find inspiration.

In the case of Blessed By a Broken Heart, they've spent enough time familiarizing themselves with eighties metal and dance rock, everyone from Lion to Europe to Pseudo Echo, but instead of completely hijacking that vibe, they merely fuse it into a metalcore conscript. This should sound very shaky on the front and it most certainly is a flashpoint marriage on their album Pedal to the Metal, particularly when you can jazzercise to this thing as quickly as you can aerial kick your way in young man's constitution of a slam pit.
