DOUBLE-CROSSER

Possibly the most heart-felt and painful album of the year, Seabound’s
Double-Crosser is a violent psychological storm of emotions all tied into the
themes of deceit and self-deception. Imagine every emotion one is faced with
when they find out someone they love has decimated their trust. Love, anger,
depression, blame and remorse pull the listener through the deepest recesses
of the human psyche as they begin to question the very truth they were
presented. Frank Spinath from Seabound notes “…the more you see through the
facades, the more life's contradictions and irreconcilable needs will haunt
you. If you lack the naïveté to find consolation in easy dogmatic rules, you
will have to face the unsolvable sooner or later.” Becoming a more confident
singer on this album, Frank’s vocals are accentuated by Seabound’s signature
sounds and arrangements.
Martin Vorbrodt's varying compositions facilitate a balance with the lyrics to
emphasize the feelings throughout the songs. From the fast paced “Traitor”
where anger and frustration prevail to slower paced “Sapphire” where hope is
present, Double-Crosser explores the temptations that we are faced with
everyday and how they affect the people dearest to you. [ Metropolis Records promo text ]
"Sometimes though, we choose to inflict pain on others risking everything we ever cared for and believed in. Sometimes we simply break down. If we are lucky, somebody cares and dares to pick us up. Will this person be safe? I don't think so..." (Frank M. Spinath)
