Full Flyleaf Review [Archive] - ForumsHQ

Lacey Mosley, the female hard rock singer of Flyleaf, has been in hard rock bands before. She had one complaint about her previous groups, the negativity. Hard rock is known for it's painful lyrics, it's angst ridden riffs, and heart ripping drum beats. This is not what Lacey wanted, she didn't want her music to keep her in her pain, in her lonliness. She wanted her music to be truthful to the pain she does feel but wanted her music to uplift people. She wanted people to walk away knowing that there are better days, that there is a way through the pain. As she shows in the song So I Thought
"thoughts free-flow...try to consume myself in this I'm not faithless, just paranoid, of getting lost or that I might lose."
Her faith in God plays a large role in her music, but this isn't another case of Creed. She didn't get into a band to be a preacher to a flock that needs preaching to, and don't worry she isn't trying to convert you either as shown by these lyrics in a song titled Breathe Today
"I can only say what I've seen and heard and only you can choose. And every choice you make will affect you, search your own self."
Her lyrics are intelligent and soulful. Her singing style rivels that of Avril Lavigne and Amy Lee of Evanescence, and the music is hard enough for fans of Tool and Metallica. Don't let their genre of Christian Rock fool you, this is a hard rock band that delivers hard hitting emotions with an added sense of being satiated.
