If one was to explore the definition of the word Energy you would find: Energy is the capacity of a physical system to
perform work. Well it is quite apparent that is exactly what we have witnessed here on The Energy's latest self release
"Realize Your Sin". Melodic tone mixed with just the right amount of rock riffs combined with powerful lyrics makes this
album stand out. Let us take for instance the opening lyrics to track 3. "Devil on Horseback". They begin "Shadows past
are at our door,to win the fight that they began before." This is only a sample of what you would find on all 10 of the
tracks on this album, almost as each tells it's own story that can also be determined by the listener.
As a music fanatic myself I am always searching the horizon for something new, not new as in same band making the
same album again and changing the title, new as in something different, something energetic if you will that stands out
on it's own making you want to listen to every lyric,every riff, and every beat of the drum kit. A track on this album that I
personally find to be one of the best tracks I have heard in a while and also one in which i feel I can relate with would be
the title track "Realize Your Sin" which is also featured on this page. In my opinion this could land as a great single on
the chart's and I would really love to hear some of The Energy played on mainstream radio at some point. Hopefully they
will get a little push as they open for 3 Doors Down as well as Eve 6 and Jimmie's Chicken Shack.

THE ENERGY stands as an exciting new force in music today, a blend of 80s-hard rock with
indie sensibilities backing their music's positive message.
The band began with an undeniable connection between four young men: Adam, James, Ian
and Zach, all from different walks of life but internally united - and before anybody knew
exactly what was happening, THE ENERGY was born. Coming from humble beginnings -
playing local clubs and unheralded haunts - The Energy quickly emerged as one of the most
up and coming bands in the Northeast. The Energy has graced the stage of the
Fillmore@Irving Plaza, The Blender Theater@Gramercy, Marquee Theater, Highline
Ballroom, the Viper Room, the Mercury Lounge, the Knitting Factory, the State Theater, the
Chance Theater, the Middle East, and Harpers Ferry, consistently promoting messages of
hope, personal struggle, and social consciousness.
During the round of touring for the release of their new album, Realize Your Sin, engineered
by Dae Bennett , The Energy shared the stage with such nationally-renown artists as Three
Doors Down, Eve 6, Ryan Cabrera, Fastball, Nine Days, Keith Kane of Vertical Horizon,
VAST, and Colin Hay.
The band's single from their second album (Climbing Palace Walls), "Runaway," was featured on the final episode of
MTV's hit reality TV show The Real World: Hollywood. Not only that, radio station Z100 selected The Energy from a pool
of thousands of artists from around the world for its contest New!, which highlights the work of select emerging
musicians. The force is growing. The dream is burgeoning.
