PUNK (essentially)
Hard, angry rock from this San Jose-based, coed quintet, including good female lead vocals, guitar, keys, bass, and drums. Not bad, if you like the goth nun in torn fishnets sort of thing.

No FCC issues.

1 Untitled preface: Repeated spoken words (a sermon?) with noises. (1:33)
2 Untitled intro: Rhythm guitar lick with bass & drums. Could use as intro to #2. (0:42)
3 ** “Sorry” Fast & loud. Sneering vocal. Heavy organ. Wall of sound guitar, drums. (2:32)
4 * “Searching for Grey” Mid-fast. Guitar & organ trade leads. (3:44)
5 “Coma” Very fast. Screaming vocals. More guitar & drums (less organ) on this one (3:27)
6 ** “Used to Be Green” Very fast, loud, angry, but with interesting departures from the usual punk monotony. Some male backing vocal. (2:10)
7 “Double Edged Sword” Very fast, very loud. Maybe a bit of Chili Peppers here. (2:29)
8 “Vacant Churches” Fast. Female & male voices. Too much organ. Pretty vacant. (2:15)
