User Album Review
The first half of the album is exactly what you’d expect – a collection of alt-metal tunes that will remind you why you love this genre. The second half of the album is what really stands out though.
The track that really stands out the most in this collection is a cover of Linkin Park’s “Numb.” The Veer Union paid tribute to Chester Bennington (former lead singer of Linkin Park) on the one year anniversary of his death with this amazingly arranged acoustic cover of “Numb.”
The acoustic section of this album is the best and offers a new way to hear this genre of music. It’s much more intimate and touching. This is a 9-star album – five for the acoustic section and four for the rock half (only because they didn’t sway much from the basic sound of the genre of music they play).
