{|CKY|}'s infamy from their exposure through skateboarding videos and {|MTV|}'s {|Jackass|} was on the wane by the time their second {|Island|} album rolled around. Lucky them, as expectations to be a goofy skater band have slowly dissolved and left the group to find their sound. And strangely enough, they found straight-ahead {|heavy metal|} underneath all the hype, showing an excellent talent for menacing melodies, grim lyrics, and heavy riffs. The album-opening {|Escape From Hellview|} is a glorious attempt at a {|metal|} anthem; riding high on winding guitars and eerie synth lines, {|Deron Miller|}'s infectious tale of friends hanging from trees and the deafening silence of loneliness is an unquestionable success. Instantly setting the mood, the rest of the album bounces back and forth between these deliberate slabs of {|metal|} and poppier {|post-grunge|} rockers. The 4/4 {|disco|} beat and lifting melodies of {|Plastic Plan|} are a good example of the latter, although the song doesn't abandon the dark, bass-heavy sound that their heavier tracks showcase. Even their stab at {|gothic metal|}, {|Sporadic Movement,|} is a fantastic experiment that proves what a versatile band {|CKY|} is at their core. Breaking out of the mold and bucking expectations, {|Infiltrate Destroy Rebuild|} is an irony-free exploration of heavy music that goes straight for the gut and keeps on punching. ~ Bradley Torreano Less
