P.O.D. is a quartet from San Diego that plays a hard-hitting mixture of
reggae, rap and rock, and targets the plight of the suburban
lumperproletariat.
Sonny Sandoval's agit-prop sermons on
The Fundamental Elements Of Southtown (Atlantic, 1999)
are closer in spirit and sound to Bad Brains
and Rage Against The Machine than to
Police, although the ebullient
Rock The Party could as well be a
New Order hit.
Satellite (Atlantic, 2001) is a carbon copy of the debut album.
A general-purpose single (Alive), a tense sermon
(Messenjah),
one monumental anthem (Anything Right) and one monumental
joke (Youth Of A Nation, a parody of Pink Floyd's Wall)
keep the band solvent while they try to find a personality.
Payable on Death (2003) and Testify (2006) were utterly
disposable.
