Australian trio Sick Puppies rose to prominence in the mid-'00s with their buffed-up take on nu-metal and hard-edged power ballads. Both "War" and "You're Going Down" are fuming rock 'n' roll sprints tinted with snarling industrial programming, while the even more aggressive "Stick To Your Guns" boasts scathing, raw-throat vocals from Bryan Scott. On the lighter side, the '90s rock-inspired "Maybe" and fuzzed-out "All the Same" layer crashing choruses over fluttering acoustic guitars, illustrating Sick Puppies' knack for being sweet and savage all at once.
