The Impossibility Of Reason
Artist: Chimaira
Release Date: May 13, 2003
THE NEW WAVE OF AMERICAN HEAVY METAL has been born...enough said. BUT, for those of you that like to read text, read on, read on...
Pass Out Of Existence is Chimaira's foundation, but the band hardly rested on its laurels when it came time to make The Impossibility Of Reason. "This is a more mature record," says singer Mark Hunter. "But at the same time, it's more in your face. Whether it's the heaviest, or the most melodic, tame song, it's full on. It's everything our fans love, but with something else. Look at some of the most notorious metal bands out there. You can't put on any of their records without noticing a change from record to record. That is what we strive to do. We feel we've shown a lot of growth and musicianship."
Lead guitarist Rob Arnold concurs, "We all had a certain motivation about the music we wanted to create. The fury. The speed. The aggression. We learned a lot from being the road."
Sonically, Chimaira focused on crafting an album that ignores current metal trends such as rapping, guest appearances, and scoffs at any traces of nu metal. "The Impossibility Of Reason is less futuristic than the last record. The programming is more subsonic, and it's more of a dark synth style," Hunter explains. "The low sub tones make you feel you like you are inside the record. It's the darkest thing we have ever done."
The darkest thing that will make you see the light...
