I reviewed the tracks:
"Crack the Whip" which was the last of the tunes off this EP i heard, what i found off this one was it was angry, repetitive, and loud! serious angry jams, with crisp noise and full of power.! very hard pure and fast.
"Mister Know It All" blends from a guitar solo starting off really gentle and soft -- is this punk i thought?! Then in with a sudden crash of punk jam, strong vocals crashing everywhere! Great Jamming sessions with strong vocals realing off into emotional head nodding wild jumping pure punk!
"Totally Blind" was so good my kids went wild: all similar sounding but distinctively striking leading into.
"Bitter," which starts off with a Punk Rock sound of mellower punk, blending well into some major punk jams mellow crosses anger in the vocals throughout the whole song mixing well with some amazing guitar bursts mixes and
great sounds, ending in one amazing session of noise consisting of drums, guitar
and bass hard and fast. IT TOTALLY ROCKED!!
"Soulmate," which starts off with a great electric guitar, mild drums, and hectic bass line getting heavier as it
goes, with lots of percussion, mellower less aggressive lyrics with the awesome punk jam meshing
into some awesome sounds. This track was my favorite out of them all, whereas I then found.
"Trusty," now this gets off of with a great start, banging into a angry jam of bass.guitar and drums blending strong vocals into one huge jamming session, blending off into a milder punk rock session finish, jamming next into.
"We Know," which i found awesome, starts full on, continuing full of jamming bursts of great drums lead with eclectic guitar bursts and strong bass lines, repetitive vocals that totally rocked!! Excellent song,
Excellent album...Totally Awesome!
