Dance” goes deep and dense as does the heavy “Forget” with strangely enough a memorable hook. “Cease & Desist” is a more moody piece. “Chop” runs through a range of snappy to sturdy progressions. The record closes with a melodic yet blazing “Torched”. Kill The Flaw reflects where Sevendust has been as they continue expanding their signature brand of metal. Madame Mayhem is an eclectic singer/songwriter from Manhat- tan. Her fourth album Now You Know starts off with “Monster” and “Perfect Nightmare” set a dark and heavy mood for much of this record. During “Pain” the musical vibe shifts from metal to a softer but still lyrically biting tone. Madame Mayhem does not mince words as she powerfully tells her tales of life and broken relationships. The catchy “Can’t Stand” and the subtle “Anyone Who Had A Heart” are rockers with a dash of pop. Watch the video for “Monster” by Madame Mayhem NewJerseyStage.com 2016 - ISSUE 1 Table of Contents 62
