Helping the band’s cause is a set of compelling performances from vocalist Puciato, who possesses a legion of voices. Sometimes, he sounds like Trent Reznor at his most pathetic, at others, like Living Colour’s Corey Glover at his most electric. Puciato??s unmelodic side has variety too—he yells, he whines, he screams, and he screeches.
