Sixx: A.M. lightened their load on Modern Vintage, a 2014 albumwhere they spruced up their Sunset Strip sleaze with a bit ofvintage glam swagger. The very title of Prayers For The Damned --the first part of a purported double-album project; the secondsegment was released later in 2016 -- suggests a return to darknessand, sure enough, the album delivers upon that promise. Hard andheavy, Prayers For The Damned doesn't truck with good times: it'sall sturm and drang, tempered by existential protest and calls forall the alienated to rise. These rallying cries ultimately producea diametrically different effect than The Heroin Diaries, theinsular autobiography that kicked off Sixx: A.M.'s career back in2007. Then, the group was Nikki Sixx's vehicle to exorcise personaldemons -- not for nothing did it accompany a written memoir -- butnow that Sixx: A.M. is his main creative project, he's channellinggreater ambitions into the quartet. Fittingly after a near-decadeof work, the band sounds like a cohesive unit, adhering throughvolume and intensity. Now that the group are comfortable with theirchemistry, they're presenting a unified front and confronting theworld at large; it's music that looks outward. Sixx: A.M. may stillbattle misanthropic demons rattling inside their heads, andsometimes they'll succumb to overdriven murk -- a sludgy sound thatconveys gloom but gets gloopy -- but the ambition on this firstpart of Prayers For The Damned is admirable. Better still, theyoften manage to take this roiling outrage and shape it intosomething melodramatically satisfying, an achievement that suggestswhy Sixx had no trouble saying goodbye to Mötley Crüe.
