Bio:

Nonpoint only becomes fiercer with each subsequent album. Their ninth full-length offering and first for Spinefarm Records, The Poison Red, is no exception either. After 19 years in the game, the Florida quintet sustains the same energy that sparked its foundation back in 1997. The riffs crack with neck-snapping intensity, the bass and drums forge an unmatched groove, and the vocals rapidly recount stories of pain and perseverance. The Poison Red remains as raw, ripping, and real as these musicians—Elias Soriano [vocals], Robb Rivera [drums], Rasheed Thomas [rhythm guitar], Adam Woloszyn [bass], and B.C. Kochmit [lead guitar]—get.Nonpoint are on their way back with a new album this summer. The band will release The Poison Red on July 8 which was recorded in February 2016 at Uptown Studios in Chicago IL with Rob Ruccia.In early 2016, Nonpoint closed out almost 2 years of touring behind 2014’s The Return record, which yielded the Active Rock radio hits “Breaking Skin” and “Misery”. Fueled by that continued success and their time on the road, they immediately began writing for album number nine. This time around, the band amped up the aggression musically, while Elias drew inspiration from a whole new well altogether.The first single “Generation Idiot” is already making the rounds on radio. With some nifty guitar fret work at the beginning, it’s evident that Nonpoint are ready to rock. Frontman Elias Soriano gives the song plenty of aggression and attitude as he nimbly maneuvers around some rather tongue-twisty lyrics, setting all the Internet tough guys and text messaging fair-weather friends in their place.“Over the past five years, I began to notice people, myself included, getting lost in a few of the simple things – life, art, passions,” Soriano explains. “Everything became a reality TV blog with pictures and comments, likes and dislikes, online bullies and online tough guys. And no one is talking anymore. Everything is texts, emails, replies and denies. They’re all anchors. They all suck the life out of life. It creates zombies with unhinged appetites. It’s a real zombie apocalypse and, motherfucker, I’m grabbing a machete and a shot gun.“This record tells a lot of stories,” says Soriano about their new disc. “Going from guts to glory. Chasing impossible dreams down the rabbit hole. Harsh and honest words with consequences attached. Uncovered rules for the weak, made by the wicked and heartless. Recalling fight or flight moments with a deep breath. And it all starts with a warning to all the world’s generations past, present and future to look up, look forward and live their lives loose from social media shackles, online bullying, the devaluation of art and music, and to not be absorbed by the dramatic, megalomaniacal side of politics. Life is right outside of your phone and newsfeed. Go live it and play this record while you do. It’ll all start to make sense.”

Album:

Whatever your thoughts on the whole nu-metal movement, there were a few acts who always felt they were reaching for a bit more than just recycled thrash riffs and teen angst. While they never reached the heights of groups like Korn or Slipknot, Florida’s Nonpoint were certainly one of a handful of groups lumped into the movement that felt different. Much like Sevendust, Nonpoint’s groove metal/hard rock hybrid was much more musical (and ages much better) than their peers. Hell, albums like Development and Recoil were some of the best albums of the nu-metal era. For better or worse, Nonpoint has pushed on through their almost two-decade career, even if some of their later output didn’t quite measure up to their aforementioned pinnacle.The Poison Red is their ninth album overall and first for Spinefarm Records, and it’s better than any hard rock album in 2016 has a right to be. Vocalist Elias Soriano was always a better lyricist than most of his nu-metal brethren (not saying much, sure), and his considerable righteous anger finds a great well to draw from living in modern America. The album touches on racism, our dependence on technology, the multitude of deceivers in the world, as well as Elias’ thoughts on the need to have a radio chorus.As with the lyrical diversity, Nonpoint really pushed themselves musically here. Sure, their signature groove is on fine display throughout, but each of these songs has a distinct voice, and songs use blues, thrash, southern metal, and, of course, Latin flourishes to great effect. “El Diablo” is a quintessential Nonpoint song, in the vein of Recoil’s “Rabia”, albeit with a more refined tempo and a fantastic hook. Elias has the irritating tendency to prefer his raspier voice, but “El Diablo” showcases how strong his actual singing voice is when he lets it out.Overall, sure, you can pick at some minor issues associated with a hard rock/nu-metal album in 2016, and while that will get you some internet points on certain blogs, it feels cheap. The Poison Red is a really fun album that harnesses the right amount of anger, mixing it in with shout-a-long choruses and meaty riffs. Songs like “No Running Allowed” and “Divided Conquer Them” are some of the strongest the band has penned to date. This album is worthwhile because it contains lyrical and musical substance in spades. Ignore the genre tag and enjoy this gem.
