Having a quite nice album cover and a very interesting title, 'Reinventing The Sun' is the new output of The Limit; a three-piece rock band from New Haven, Connecticut, USA. I had never heard of this band before, but then again I am not exactly a veteran of rock music, so that doesn't say too much. Yet the first song on this CD, 'House Of Sand', already had me completely hooked. The Limit plays a "mature" (like mature wine, not like old bread) and "American" type of rock music. Apart from being on a high technical level their music also packs a lot of power and has it's own and unmistakable sound. The drumming is pretty nice and rich in variation; it is not limited to a steady beat-provider as in many rock bands, but ads to the richness of the music with it's playful character. The guitar is also used in a lot of different ways, which is never a bad thing either. Further I have the impression that the bass guitar is quite dominant on this CD; it adds a lot to the recognizable sound of The Limit and sounds really good in my opinion. The vocalist stays pretty similar throughout the whole album, this isn't as bad as it sounds though, because I can assure you that it fits pretty well.
