This album definitely does not fail to impress after several years since releasing their album Comatose. The album continues in the hard rock style of Skillet, with drums that pierce and guitars and lyrics that get the point across. Each song has its own definite meaning. I think my favorite two songs off the album are "Monster" and "Forgiven". "Monster" has a sort of new sound, but still some of the old sound of Skillet. I personally relate to it, feeling like a monster when I want to do good, what God wants, but find the monster inside me saying, "NO!" All this while rocking out! Yea! "Forgiven" is another good song because it tells of God's love, and how He constantly forgives us, no matter what we've done, or who we are.
"Don't Wake Me" and "Lucy" are good songs, as they talk about the pain associated with losing somebody in a relationship, or because of death. However, it seemed like the lyrics showed the singer not willing to let go of the situation and give it to God; instead they dwelled on it. That is my only complaint about this album. "Awake" is something that all Skillet fans will enjoy! View All Music And Book Reviews By drummerboy0511 | View drummerboy0511's Profile
