3.5 stars - a turning point

1997's A Mended Rhyme was the third full-length from Swedish progressive power metal band Tad Morose, and the first to feature new vocalist Urban Breed (yeah, apparently that's his real name). We've seen time and time again how a new singer can breathe new life into a band, and this is no exception.
Adding a singer of Urban Breed's caliber (closest comparisons - Zak Stevens and Andy Franck) to Tad Morose took the band's technically proficient, somewhat grim, melodic (they are Swedish after all) power metal and augmented it with a very powerful, very versatile vocal presence. The songs on A Mended Rhyme have more of a Dream Theater-ish technical vibe, and aren't as catchy as what would come on later albums, and the album suffers from less than stellar production (listen to this prior to spinning Undead and the difference in quality is striking), but it stands as a great example when Tad Morose started to really become a force in power metal.
A Mended Rhyme is an important album in Tad Morose's history, and is one that all Tad Morose Fans should own, even if it doesn't quite measure up to the albums that followed.
PS - Of course Urban Breed has since left Tad Morose, going on to (briefly) front the band Bloodbound. His last album, Modus Vivendi (easily the band's best work) is the last Tad Morose album to date.

This is definately the best of the four cds that Tad Morose have put out. Their sound has changed from progressive metal with power element to power metal with progressive elements. This is due to new vocalist Urban Breed's more aggressive singing style. His voice forces the rest of the band to keep up with him. This disk is worth anything that you have to pay for it. It is sure to become a metal classic with songs like "Circuit Vision," and "A Mended Rhyme." The combination of power and elegence in the music is astounding. It is a must for any fan of music. This comes highly recommended!!!
