Hard-rockin' foursome Pillar has created another winner with this brilliantly textured project. The title track is a fierce anthem showcasing lead vocalist Rob Beckley's aggressive yet accessible vocal style. Some rock singers can be all swagger and little substance, but Beckley is a revelation on each track. He can snarl his way through the raucous "Reckless Youth" and then sound surprisingly soulful on the power ballad "Smiling Down." His vocal presence, combined with the skilled musicianship of drummer Lester Estelle, bassist Michael "Kalel" Wittig and guitarist Noah Henson, makes for a thoroughly entertaining record. This fifth studio album spotlights Pillar as a talented rock outfit still on the move. —Deborah Evans Price
