Young British band Eagulls bring together the sinister elements of post-punk and the wiry energy of punk rock. Riveting from start to finish with surprisingly interesting lyrics beneath the waves of guitar and barked vocals. A raucous mess. Favorites: 1, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9. No FCCs. Others: Iceage "New Brigade", Joy Division, Holograms, Wire 1. (4:05) **** Chugging bass with clouds of guitar distortion. Passionate, infectious vocals. Quick fade-out. Personal favorite. 2. (3:20) ** Prominent bass that builds into a noisy chorus before the song reconstructs itself midway through. 3. (3:55) *** Thumping rocker with drums high up in the mix. Exhilarating. 4. (4:01) ** Almost 80's Cure-ish vibe. One of the more melodic songs on the album. 5. (3:36) ** More of the same. Nice vocal intonation and catchy chorus. 6. (3:08) *** Ascending melody matched alongside shouted ragged vocals. Pretty simple structurally but you can't beat raw energy like this. 7. (4:09) **** Dark ominous bass line alongside strained paranoid vocals. Spine-tingling. 8. (2:38) ** Chaotic, cathartic, climactic…I can't think of any more adjectives. 9. (3:19) *** Destined for a teen-angst movie somewhere. Great call and response chorus. 10. (5:01) Pulsing guitar noise builds into a stormy fuzz drenched rocker. | ||
