@Micool1 2018 lp's stuff off the top of my head shrine, void ripper and reidi

might wanna put artists along with the album names!

Patterns in Traffic · May 22, 2018

This week I was paired with @Micool1 and I was recommended albums by two bands that I've been meaning to get to know better. The first is Billy Talent. I've always enjoyed the singles I've heard from the band, but their most recent album, 2016's Afraid of Heights, is the first of their albums that I've listened to all the way through. I've now experienced their previous album from 2012, Dead Silence.

I'm not sure if this is supposed to be a concept album, but it certainly opens like one with the cinematic "Lonely Road to Absolution." This is a short intro track that very much sounds like the opening to a play with fingerpicked guitar and strings. This song kind of reminds me of Green Day, particularly "Boulevard of Broken Dreams," though that could be partly due to the similar song titles.

The second track, "Viking Death March," was the first single from the album, and it features vocalist Ben Kowalewicz's distinctive yell with the instrumentation galloping along behind him. "Surprise Surprise" is a driving rock track with a surprisingly sugary pop melody in the chorus. "Runnin' Across the Track" has a hook that reminds me a lot of some other great Billy Talent singles I've heard, and the guitar work in the verses sounds heavily inspired by '70s and '80s classic rock. A fun, fast-paced track follows in "Love Was Still Around," which was a personal favorite for me.

Track six, "Stand Up and Run," is a softer track that features some cleaner guitar work and more anthemic singing. While I think the band excels more with louder and more driving fare, I appreciated hearing them try something different and providing some variation with this song. "Crooked Minds" is a bit of a dirge in the verses and Kowalewicz does his best Robert Plant scream at the beginning. This one definitely sounds Zeppelin-inspired. The energy is pushed up another notch on "Man Alive!" where the chorus moves along at breakneck speed. Other highlights include "Don't Count on the Wicked," with a great main guitar riff, and "Swallowed Up by the Ocean," which starts as a piano ballad and gradually builds to full band instrumentation.

This is a long rock record at 54 minutes, but it held my interest throughout because of the impressive amount of variation on display. The songs here are undeniably Billy Talent, but each one has a unique twist or new influence that creeps in to separate it from the others. It is rare to find a 14-track album where each song is distinct and nothing sounds like a lesser version of another track on the album, but that is the case here in my opinion. I'm glad that I was able to check out another Billy Talent album, and I am definitely going to continue to work through their discography to see what else I've missed from this band.

And here we go with some more reviews.

First, @SamLevi11

Modern Baseball- You're Gonna Miss It All

This is one of those bands that I had heard of whispered through murmurs on Chorus and Absolutepunk, but I never got around to listening to them myself. So when Sam gave me the option of listening to them, I figured now was as good of a time as any. I went in blind with this one, so I had no idea what to expect when I dove into this album. What I found was a bit of a ride. I know a lot of people around these parts really like these guys, so I was hyped to hear this. What I was introduced to when the opening track 'Fine, Great' was a bit of an unexpected curve ball than what I had for some reason imagined they sounded like. Musically, there are some nifty things going on here. The guitars are all well toned and sound really good, and the drums kind of range from good to great on certain songs; but vocally I just could not get into this guy's voice. It was kind of monotonous, and a bit grating to listen to through the 30 minutes of these 12 songs.

Lyrically, these songs seem to sit in the range of young adult hood thematically, dealing with issues of love and the worry of death and the broken hearts that come with that time of your life. The lyrics aren't half bad through this album, really, in fact some songs like 'Apartments' and 'The Old Gospel Choir' have some really nice lyrics. However, as I said before, I probably would like or love these songs more if they were sung a bit differently. Also, as I said before, the guitars on this album are actually really good. Theres some cool folk rock influences in songs like 'Going To Bed Now', and there are some really energetic sounds on some, look no further than the aforementioned 'Apartments' for that. Sonically they are pretty good, and the best example of that and the best song on this album 'Your Graduation'. This one sounds much better, and even vocally they sound a lot more interesting than they do on the previous songs on the album. I would have loved to hear more songs like that one. I was also informed that there are two vocalists in this band...very rarely did I notice there was more than one; though on this song both vocalists seem at their peak and sound great! Out of the times I listened to this album, this was the one I came back to the most and its just a fun song.

Overall, I am sorry to say Sam that I did not click with this album. Theres some interesting things going on here and there, but something about the vocals and the production just had me not settling with this. It didn't gel for me at all. I have heard that their newest album is much better, and I probably will get around to checking that out; but going off this album I probably wouldn't have considered looking into them again. Stand out tracks for me are: Apartment, The Old Gospel Choir, Going To Bed Now, Your Graduation

5.5/10

The Front Bottoms- Talon Of The Hawk

This is a band I have been meaning to check out for a bit now. A year ago, they were on a tour opening for Blink-182, and I was supposed to go. I was amped, and I had heard that I should check these guys out and that I might like them. And then a month before the concert, the show was canceled without reason. I was a bit sour, and I never got around to checking these guys out. So when Sam gave me a chance to try them again, I most certainly took the chance. What I was exposed to was a great rock sound that stood out between the two albums given to me this week, A full sounding, catchy and fun album that was a good time to listen to. I would go around my house doing house work with my head phones in listening to this album, and it just really helped the time fly by to get lost within the songs on this album. Just something of a fun rock album that has a huge indie vibe to it; though I can see why they toured with Blink as there was a bit of a pop punk vibe going on around with them too. So, how did the album fare?

Lyrically, this album is both a blessing and a curse. The lyrics are very ambiguous, with a some vague lines in these songs. Now, this is not necessarily a bad thing; it in a lot of moments makes it a little easier to kind of make the songs more relatable because you begin to interpret the lyrics about yourself. However, sometimes there are lines that are just so vague that they kind of hinder the songs but luckily this was few and far between. Sonically, the guitars on this album are on point; shredding riffs rife with a bit of an indie low fi muffle to them, strummed bass lines and some rolling drums in the background fill out the songs and make the songs just sound bigger. It really worked on walks with my dog late on a summer night, with just my headphones in. Vocally as well, the band sounds great in this style of music. Songs like 'Skeleton' and 'Twin Size Mattress' show these musical flares through out them to enhance the lyrics and vocals they are framing that you cannot help but admire the passion of the song that is obviously having a lot of work put into it. Honestly with the way they are structured, they kind of remind me of The Mezingers or Tigers Jaw. 'Twin Size Mattress' was one of the huge highlights of this album for me, and by my second time listening it had me shouting along with that great chorus by the end. 'Santa Monica' is just insanely good, and has such an energy to it; and there are some very different things done within the song musically that it shows what this band is capable of. The other great example of this is 'Swear To God The Devil Made Me Do It' is just a great track; vocally its catchy and fun, musically its full of passion and energy. This song will get stuck in your head effortlessly in subsequent listens.

This was a good album, and I found myself curious to check out some of their other work. I regret that I didn't get to see them live, but perhaps I will catch them next time they are around. If you like bands like the ones I mentioned, you will probably like these guys if you haven't heard them already. I recommend giving this band a shot, and I look forward to discovering more from them and letting their sound grow on me. Stand out tracks are: Au Revoir (Audios), Skeleton, Swear To God The Devil Made Me Do it, Twin Size Mattress, Peach, Lone Star, Backflip

7.5/10

And now, two bonus trades I did with @anonimito and @Nate_Johnson

@anonimito
The X-Files Movie Soundtrack- Various Artists (1998)

This is going to be different, as this is not a band's album as I am used to doing, but rather a compilation album soundtrack from a movie. Going into listening to this, I knew that I would have to set aside my notions of an 'album' and also how I was going to approach writing this review. Just like the Tv show and the movie that this soundtrack album comes from, there are some insanely dark vibes generating from these songs; which makes perfect sense for it to work as the soundtrack. Bands such as Tonic, Bjork, Sting, and a bunch more make appearances on here. Filter's cover of 'One' makes a huge impression opening the sound track, and the album doesn't let up from there. Even without watching the movie for many years, my mind came back to certain scenes in the movie while listening to this; which is a great thing but I had to try and block them out to write a fair review as just an album. This is a hard thing to do for a compilation soundtrack album though, as many of these artists have different ways of working and sounding.

This is a good collection of songs though. It lasts about an hour, and it works well for drives on the highway at night time. There are highlighted moments in this though, 'More Than This' by The Cure being on here was a huge plus for me, and worked really well within the context of the musical collection it was, for example. A lot of the songs on this are either covers or reworking's of an artist's previous works (Something that I recognized for some of these songs, but not for others, and if I had not researched the album before writing the review would not have noticed.) It sets a dark, immersive mood that just kind of sucks you into the album for the hour that it plays; which is exactly what a soundtrack album should do. A lot of the time a soundtrack album can come off as obnoxious, or disjointed. I am happy to say this one is none of those things and its actually a really good listen; its like your favorite mix tape but in the 90s. And of course, after all these power house musicians have their moments, one of the last songs (The last if not counting the bonus track) is a cool remixed version of the X-Files theme song played with various different instruments and electronics. This alone was worth the listen.

This is a good listen, especially if you are a fan of: The X-Files, 90s music, melodic and mood setting compilation pieces, and just a good driving album. Its a collection, so you are free to pick and choose your favorite tracks; but I found this was best experienced as the one hour compilation that it was intended to be. My stand out moments on this were: 'One' by Filter, 'Flower Man' by Tonic, 'Walking After You' by Foo Fighters, 'More Than This' by The Cure, 'Hunter' by Bjork, and of course the remixed theme song.

also side note @anonimito, it IS on apple music.

7.5/10

and now @Nate_Johnson

Sevendust- All I See Is War

Some odd months back, I had several people assign me numerous Sevendust albums to the point that I did a giant write up expanding over half of their discography and kind of charting their advancement through each album. After said write up, I went and pretty much filled in the gaps of the albums I hadn't listened to and caught up with the rest of their work; so when I found out they had a new album coming out this year I was finally on board and hyped to listen to this one when it came out. After listening to it a couple times, it nudged onto my current top 10 AOTY list for 2018. Shortly after, and since no one did a day one review of the album in here, @Nate_Johnson and I worked out a trade where he asked me to write up a review of this album. I was happy to do so; and I will just say that if you wanted the most accessible Sevendust album to listen to if you are like I was and haven't listened to anything by them, this is it. This shows what a band can do after taking a break, taking their time in the writing process, and truly making something worthy of their top efforts. This album does a lot of cool things musically, with no song blending with the other one in a way that isn't good; there are no washes on this album where you don't realize the song has changed.

Right out the gate from the opening track 'Dirty' you know you are in for a ride. The guitar on this album is insane, this son especially holds some of the best shredding on the entire album. I am happy to say that this album takes from their old sound, takes from their newer sounds, mixes it all up together and pushes it forward to something completely different. Sonically, there are songs that take from their very aggressive history sounding, but there are also influences from their more modern releases like Cold Day Memory. The aggressive screaming is dialed back quite a bit on this album, though the vocals lose no emotion or powerful rawness because of this; all it seems to have done has allowed Sevendust more room to push their clean vocals to the limits of their aggressiveness and their melodic sides. The guitars also see this flux, going from smooth and crafted to aggressive and shredding; making for a wild ride that runs like a rollercoaster in the best ways possible. Thematically the album deals with facing personal demons, facing the trials and turmoil of the modern world, and yet looking for hope in the darkness. 'Medicated' for example, has some dark lyrics about being a shell of your former self, and yet the bridge and the softer moments of the song show this beautifully sounding side to this band. There is not a bad song on this album, and all of them having something great to say about them; 'Unforgiven' is an aggressive anthem of a banger that will have you banging your head, 'Risen' is an insane blast of aggression with one of the damn coolest intros to a song that I have heard in a while before heading into some nice yelling vocals, 'Not Original' sounds like the soundtrack from Stranger Things contacted Sevendust to make a song for them, decided not to use it, so Sevendust included it on their album. And the lyrics to this song, like many of the others on this one are just damn powerful. Having listened to all of their albums now, I would stand by the statement that this may be some of their most well written lyrics and they tug at the heartstrings while punching you in the gut at the same time, and this song is a prime example of this. This is one of those albums that is best listened to as a whole, but if you are in a hurry and want to select a few tracks, this album has plenty to offer in that regard too; though picking which ones will be hard because they are all just that dang good really.

This is an extremely well fleshed out album, with something for everyone on here. This seems to be a new chapter in the band's sound and I think its a very good one. This album is going to stick with me for a while, just because of how damn good it is both lyrically and sonically. The vocals are powerful and cause you to just get into the music, just begging to immerse yourself within the lyrics. The shredding guitars will have you banging your head, balling your fist, and up and about your house as you feel like singing passionately aloud some songs and tearing down the walls of your own home in rage on others. If you liked any of their older stuff, or want some really aggressive yet passionate music, this album is definitely something you should look into. Its a 2018 release to, so if you are needing to fill out your 2018 list (@Micool1), this is one you will want to check on. Sevendust is back and at the top of their game, pushing themselves forward into their most accessible sound yet. Stand out tracks are: all of them, but if I have to pick; Dirty, Medicated, Unforgiven, Risen, Not Original, Descend, Life Deceives You, The Truth
10/10

There's actually four vocalists in Mobo, the two guitarists, and then the bassist and drummer do bits here and there (for instance the drummer sings the second verse on Your Grad). I definitely understand why Bren's vocals can be grating, and even though I'm a big fan I can totally understand they aren't everyone's cup of tea!

Glad you enjoyed The Front Bottoms though, they're a fun band and whilst that isn't my favourite album of theirs (Back on Top is that), it's a good place to start!

SamLevi11 · May 23, 2018

Also, yes, I just used a British phrase involving a cup of tea. We really are like that.

Last week I was paired with @teebs41 and he recommended the live album by Right Away, Great Captain!, Live at the Knitting Factory. I'm not usually one to check out live albums, but it was cool to have a different type of recommendation and experience this set. I enjoy Manchester Orchestra and Andy Hull, though his music has never really clicked with me to the extent that it has with a lot of other folks on this site. I have heard all of the RAGC albums, but only once or twice each, so it wasn't like I knew these songs by heart coming in.

One thing that I do really enjoy about live records is hearing the excitement of the audience and getting a little bit of that energy in the recording. That is present here between songs and it is obvious that this is an intimate setting at a small venue. This album is from 2016 and it is an acoustic performance, featuring just Andy Hull and his guitar, spanning the entire three-album RAGC discography. As someone who isn't super familiar with RAGC, this is a pretty cool listen as it gives kind of an abridged version of the narrative that extends across the three albums. Hull performs the songs in track/album sequence for the most part, starting with four songs from the 2007 debut The Bitter End, continuing through four tracks from 2008's The Eventually Home, and closing with eight selections from the final RAGC album, 2012's The Church of the Good Thief. There are also two tracks that are exclusive to this release, an interlude where Hull jokes a bit with the audience and the last track, a silly song Hull wrote for his wife called "Remember Me."

This live album does a great job highlighting Hull's wonderful storytelling in his lyricism. His voice is very delicate in this setting, and it carries the songs while only accompanied by the acoustic picking and strumming. For me, this album worked well as something to sit down and focus on, really trying to internalize the lyrics and overarching story and themes. However, it's also a really soothing and pleasant listen, and something that I could put on in the background while working or doing chores that didn't distract or demand my full attention.

I don't know that I can pick out specific favorites from this set, since all the songs sound fairly similar with just Hull's voice and the acoustic guitar. "Down to Your Soul," the opening track on The Eventually Home is one that did kind of stand out among the pack in my first few listens. "When I Met Death" is also unique in that Hull puts some more raw emotion behind his vocals and pushes the volume a bit on this track. Likewise in the climax of "Barely Bit Me."

This album has definitely inspired me to spend some more time with the original RAGC trilogy. I can only imagine how impactful this performance would be if I was more familiar with the original albums and knew more about the story Hull is weaving.

Great review and I have to agree that live albums are tough, especially if you aren't familiar with the artist. I don't know if anyone listens to the theneedledrop podcast but he had done an episode speaking about live albums and saying that they are great if an artist is long gone but it's still so hard to connect to the record unless you were there and even then, nothing will ever be as amazing as seeing that artist live.

2018 has actually been a weak year for me musically. Last year I had Creeper, Deaf Havana, The Menzingers all in the first two months and I think they are all 8.5+ albums. This year I only have three I consider 8 or above and it's basically June.

I've found 2018 pretty strong so far but a whole chunk of my favs this year have been metal releases so I can understand why you'd think that if metals not your thing.

The only albums I'm anticipating right now are Panic at the Disco, Mike Shinoda and of course Thrice.

Have you heard Nervus' album from this year? Very good stuff and kind of similar to Creeper so it might be your thing.

Patterns in Traffic said:

A couple of weeks ago @Bad Frequencies recommended Bring Me the Horizon's That's the Spirit. I have never listened to BMTH before, nor am I a metalcore fan generally, but this club is all about expanding your horizons (zing) so let's do this shall we?

Opener "Doomed" starts with some reverb-drenched drums and electronics along with softly sung vocals. The clean vocals are really pleasant and not what I expected to hear right off the bat. The chorus of this song is fantastic, sung aggressively but not screamed. More of an emotional hard rock vocal performance. The next track "Happy Song" has some heavier guitar riffing and features a sample of a cheerleading squad. I'm not a huge fan of the whole "cheer/chant" thing injected into music, but it's executed pretty much as tastefully as can be here. My only other criticism of this song is that the singer peppers quite a few curse words throughout the lyrics which seem a bit gratuitous. I'm not against cursing in music whatsoever, but when curse words pop up too often it feels a little bit like lazy songwriting to me. Despite those criticisms, the song comes together pretty well and I can't help but take some enjoyment from it.

"Throne" is another driving hard rocker, this one with a little bit more electronic influence. Another nice hook in the chorus, definitely a theme on this album. "True Friends" is the poppiest track so far, a catchy little number that reassures us that "true friends stab you in the front." Sounds like a song that could have some mainstream appeal. This is followed by "Follow You," the softest song so far with some nice almost falsetto vocals. At this point I'm becoming aware that I'm probably listening to an album that is a departure from BMTH's established sound. This doesn't sound like what I think of when I think of metalcore, and I'm actually digging it quite a bit.

Really like the hard rock chorus in "What You Need" and the more anthemic one in "Avalanche." Really great vocal performances throughout this album. Closer "Oh No" is a nice 5-minute pop track with a lot of softer moments. It ends with a bouncy, groovy section that sounds unlike any other moment on the album.

Overall, this is a really solid rock album, and I would definitely call it a rock record rather than labeling it "metalcore." I'm sure the band fit into that genre earlier in their careers, but I barely hear any trace of it on this record. I really enjoyed this listen and appreciate @Bad Frequencies for introducing me to a band that I would have never checked out on my own. I don't know if any of their other albums would be my cup of tea, but I had a very positive experience with this one!

I’m glad this album was such an out of left field hit for you. Their older albums are much different (the one right before this is kind of the bridge between the two sounds). If anything it can get you geared for the next album.
