Hello once again everybody!  Ah, what do we have here today?  Oh sweet, it’s Ditheramb once again!  This is my third time reviewing the 4-man rock band.  For those first hearing of Ditheramb, the members consist of:  Jack Greenhill, playing the bass guitar, Glenn Townsend, hitting the drums, Steve Kinghorn, as the lead singer who plays the guitar, and last but not least, Scott Kinghorn who is also playing the guitar as well (yes I copied and pasted that from the last review lol).  Well, as what they (whoever they are) say, 3^rd time’s the charm!  On that note, it’s time for the review!

This song starts out with a guitar, and backwards vocals, sweet opening right there!  It’s played well and provides this uneasy, ominous feeling, with maybe a bit of foreshadowing.  You can tell something BIG is going to happen in the beginning of Euphoria.  There’s a sort of hidden atmosphere in this…and what’s this?  My prediction came true!  Everything came in very powerful and I’m rocking out here!  And the break is cool, using the Carol of the Bells melody singing the words I think might be “Come for the worse,” which brings me to my next point.

I can’t really understand he’s saying.  If I had the lyrics, I could rate the lyrics better, because I’d understand what he’s talking about, which is why it’s an 8.  It’s hard to make out.  I can make out a good amount of it.  I’m pretty sure the lyrics are great, because they haven’t disappointed me before (which is why it’s an 8 all by itself.  I think I know them well enough to not disappoint me ;)).  However as I’m listening to this over and over, I can understand more of it, but if I had the lyrics in front of me, it’d be easier for me to rate it.  Anyways, enough about the lyrics lol!  Fortunately, that‘s the only snag I seem to notice in the track.  It’s not a big deal as you can see by the score.

I do have to say Ditheramb has great chord structures.  The melody is very cool and everything going on, adds to the dramatic feel of Euphoria.  I do find a euphoric feel and it’s just great!  Looks like they’ve rocked out yet again! 

I seriously urge all of you to not only check this track, but their other ones as well.  Trust me, they are all great!  It just bothers me that they are not signed yet.  This band is going to be famous!  This isn’t ordinary rock people! 

I have to say this is Highly Recommended and I personally have to say that all of their tracks are must haves!  Just awesome guys!!
