N i c k W o o d The Lumberjack

P.O.D., a.k.a. Payable on Death, is one of the more promising shouting bands out there, but that prom­ ise is buried under filler on its second album "Satellite." The album starts off with "Set it Off," a Deftones-esque blast of instrumental noise, but soon degenerates into a flaccid Limp Bizkit rap over eerie guitar noises. It would be nice if "Set it Off" was a misstep, but it sets the tone for the rest of the album all too well-. The seething guitars and dramatic drumming are very competent, but none too inventive. The vocals also sound a bit dated, and the constant rhyming on the same syllable is beyond tedious. The standout anthem "Alive" momentarily sets the bar very high for all of P.O.D.'s thrashing com­ petition. Though in heavy rotation on MTV and radio, the song's life-affirming message is still rele­ vant, given the current gloom and doom themes of most mainstream rock. Sadly, "Alive" is followed by "Boom," a standard "my crew rules, yours sucks" outing. If every rapper and crew out there wasn't doing this, or if it was 1983, this would be fresh and new'. After one or two more tracks, it becomes painful to listen to vocalist Sonny's Fred Durst-style flows, Calif., a community near the California/Tijuana bor­ through the hardcore punk beginning of the song, with too much emphasis on rhymes and not enough der. only to change into toasting mode as the song skanks on content.
