Kill the Flaw by Sevendust

Kill the Flaw, Sevendust's eleventh studio album, came out on October 2, 2015 through Asylum and 7Bros, and by now the Atlanta crew knew exactly how they wanted to sound. They produced it themselves for the third time, recording at Architekt Music in Butler, New Jersey, with the lineup that has carried them for most of the ride: Lajon Witherspoon singing, Clint Lowery and John Connolly on guitars, Vinnie Hornsby on bass and Morgan Rose on drums.

It is classic Sevendust: down-tuned riffs that land like a sledgehammer, Rose's drums hitting like a demolition crew, and Witherspoon's soulful voice floating over the wreckage. "Thank You" carries it onto the countdowns, a song that sounds heavy and grateful at the same time. Two decades in, they still made it look easy.
