Releasedate: 01-04-2011; Label: Victory / Soulfood
By: Nina Mende

Aiden is an American rock band from Seattle, Washington that formed in the spring of 2003. The members are WiL Francis (vocals, guitar, piano, lyrics), Jake Davison (drums), Nick Wiggins (bass), and Angel Ibarra (lead guitar). wiL originally played bass but took over lead vocals when the original singer left. Ever since then they have released five albums including the latest, called “Disguises”.

Eleven tracks including intro and transition track are to be found on the new album by Aiden. “Disguises” was highly awaited by fans, even though the last release is not that long ago. The new album moves you inside as well as causing your muscles to twitch along. Listening to “Disguises” the music fills you with a strange yet familiar feeling as well as energy and strength. The songs are quite fast and kick ass. In between the songs as well as during the songs you can sometimes find sounds like a ticking clock. You can maybe imagine this album as a journey through an old haunted house with different dark rooms you enter with each song. Deep darkness, noises and sounds you hear and then Wil’s voice to guide you and maybe protect you from what you might find, but only maybe. “Disguises” is definitely a master piece. Big sound and deep stories. It sucks you into another world. Aiden will be awesome live with the new songs because most choruses are easy to sing and shout along. “Disguises” is a brilliant album. It was worth the wait and will stay in your player for quite a while, that is sure. Aiden’s new release “Disguises” is out now.
