Page Hamilton, the band\u2019s songwriter and the only original member in the current lineup, still serves up a platter full of vitriol and sheer angst unlike no other. To fully understand the logical progression from early songs like \u201cBad Moon\u201d or \u201cFBLA\u201d to the tracks on the band\u2019s latest album,\u00a0<em>Monochrome<\/em>, one must realize the incredible pressure Mr. Hamilton felt during his previous tenure with major-label heavyweight Interscope Records.
