This band is formed by members of The Gifthorse (one of my favourite Australian bands), Just Say Go and Values Here. This has been stuck in my stereo for a good week. This is their debut release with 6 original songs (not including the intro and outro) and a Rites of Spring cover (For Want Of). This is pretty solid, except for the sung vocals, but I’ll talk about that in a second. The recording is pretty good on this. The artwork is done by guitarist Stevie Scott and I quite liked it. The vocals are great, until you hit songs Low Lit Light and 18 Years. On these songs Ryan (I’m going off info from my sister here so don’t come after me if I’m wrong) attempts to sing. He needs to practice this. Don’t get me wrong he’s not horrible; he just needs some more practice.
If you like Polar Bear Club or The Gifthorse there’s a good chance you’ll like this CD. It’s out through Arrest Records.
