Tremonti: Cauterize - 10 Phenomenal Tracks Reviewed & Ranked

6. Providence

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0XKSkBn6wk Want your traditional, familiar Tremonti approach to a track, only for him to show you how far he's come? It's right here. Opening with a great fingerpicked piece that instantly connotes what fans have grown to love, this soaring composition feels larger than life, a thunderous triple drum beat from Garrett Whitlock backing up one of the best vocal deliveries on the entire record. Some lyrics just play your heart strings like a raucous guitar solo in themselves, and "Tear down the walls we built!" is already destined to be a setlist high-point as the band will surely play increasingly larger venues in the future. There's a touch of Metallica's Battery in the transition from a clean intro to the distorted brethren that comes barrelling in thereafter, and it's no wonder Tremonti initially wanted this to be the title track. You can feel the passion he has for every part of its creation coming across effortlessly, marking one hell of a way to end the album.
