It doesn’t really get much simpler than this: “We just wanted to make a true rock record all the way through,” Thousand Foot Krutch singer/guitarist Trevor McNevan says about The Art of Breaking. The disc is indeed a thick slab of rock, filled with crunchy guitars and anthemic melodies, devoid of any faddish affectations or genre-bending excursions. If that seems like a novel approach these days, don’t blame the band; their huge, straightforward sound isn’t some kind of anti-high-concept concept or due to any lack of imagination. In fact, what you hear on The Art of Breaking is a disciplined approach to the purest motivation in music: “we just wanted to make a record that sounds like something we would want to listen to.”
