Review - States of Emotion - The Unsung
View The Review
5 out of 10
Listening to States of Emotion’s latest track The Unsung I can hear why they are making waves up and down the country. However, I disagree with their biog, as this song is anything but ’blistering’. It ticks all the boxes for hit single as it has all the right ingredients, great production, a catchy chorus, synths, inexplicable words in places making singalongabilty difficult. But ultimately it’s forgettable and they also repeat the verse completely, showing a lack of imagination.
Tracklist:
1. The Unsung

"Groove metal" is a term that always makes me shudder. It brings to mind people rinsing riffs out of Pantera, Soundgarden and Raging Speedhorn records and failing to make it sound any good. Usually it's the case. Sometimes it can be surprising. Sadly with Pot's second Ep. It's the former case. Uninspired middle of the road, weed obsessed metal. It's not even the fact it's a barren plain of unoriginality, it's the fact its just played so mundanely. I was always told if you can't say anything nice, then say nothing at all.
Tough break.

Review - Fell on Black Days - Bring Out Your Dead
View The Review
7 out of 10
Fell on Black Days debut offering Bring Out Your Dead hits you immediately with the riff heavy Tooth and Nail. They then continue to pound you senseless through all five tracks. On their biog it states that FoBD are for fans of Mastodon, Pantera and Faith No More and I have to admit this is what first made me want to listen to them.
Now you can definitely hear the Pantera and Mastodon influences, though I’m not too sure about the FNM one at all. For the most part the vocals are growly, with the exception of some of the chorus’ where they are clean, so singlalongability is minimal.
It is also interesting to note with this EP that tracks 1-3 have a very different sound quality to tracks 4&5. Not to say that they are worse or better, just different. Though there does appear to be better structure and maturity with the latter tracks, which shows how much FoBD have progressed whilst making this EP.
Tracklist:
1. Tooth and Nail
2. Mea Culpa
3. Cold Vapture
4. Bring Out Your Dead
5. Bone of Contention
Review - Childbite - The Living Breathing Organ Summer
View The Review
6 out of 10
Look at that score! What does it usually tell you about a record when it only receives a 6 out of 10? Bit "meh"? Nothing really special? Lacks promise?
Well usually that is the case when a record gets awarded a-middle-of-the-road-six out of ten. In the case of Child Bite's latest effort. It's a 6 because as much as I like there sound and obvious musical knowledge, there is something even better to come. Not even the fact its on the awesome Joyful Noise label either.
"The Living Breathing Organ Summer" displays an almost encyclopaedic knowledge and understanding of alternate and left-field rock from the past ten years. At times recalling the noisy stomp of The Jesus Lizard, at others the howling rock of Jon Spencer before switching to QOTSA-in-pop-mode melody but without sounding like a crude amalgamation of these influences. Child bite have enough nous and style to mix it up and coherently hold it all together while still sounding like the schizophrenic cousin of the The Dead Kennedys and Devo's love child.
Despite all this praise my main complaint with it is the fact the songs are not that refined yet. There good. Don't get me wrong there; they just don't stick in the brain fast enough. Something which Child Bite sounds pretty close to accomplishing. When they do, be warned, it should be pretty sweet.
Tracklist:
1.Manacles
2.Odd Inn
3.Age Of Vacuum Trotters
4.Paws Perilous
5.Limpin' Round And Pussy Footin
6.Organ Summer
7.Barks To Addle

Review - Blackchords - Pretty Little Thing
View The Review
6 out of 10
Aussie band Blackchords return with Pretty Little Thing, a little pop number to infiltrate your brain with its catchy hooks and a chorus chock full of singalongabilty. The production quality is great and technically this is a very good band, but they don’t really raise your pulse like other bands. In fact No Complaints the b-side to the sugary pop single has more edge and with it’s Radioheadesque style should be more listenable, I just don’t seem to care.
Tracklist:
1. Pretty Little Thing
2. No Complaints
