Attack on Memory by Cloud Nothings

On Attack On Memory, he’s moved in the opposite direction, opening up wide spaces in his music and letting the fury beneath breathe and then bellow.

With Attack on Memory, Baldi’s never felt more alive or more authentic.

Attack on Memory is too visceral to feel like escapism, too vital to feel like cheap revival.

Attack On Memory might be on surface a pretty routine blast of crashing percussion, throaty vocals and biting guitars but repeated listens reveal a more nuanced affair full of charisma and spark.

Attack On Memory is a short, sharp shock to breathe life into the currently rather lifeless genre of indie-rock.

It’s great, catchy as hell, and bristling with retro rage and vitriol.

Most of Attack on Memory has an abrasive, shrewd backbone, but it’s those moments where Baldi hones his sweet touch where the album finds a satisfying balance of surprise and comfort.

Through Attack on Memory, Baldi maintains many of his songwriting charms—the knack for melody foremost—but he’s clearly made a sharp left turn in terms of the project’s capabilities.

At its best, Attack on Memory is emo filtered through the lens of somebody smart enough to acknowledge the occasional inanity of its sentiments

This new darker and screechy-er rendering of Cloud Nothings may not be for everyone, but it’s certainly something a bit affable to try out if you’re feeling particularly scream-y and a little bit teenage

For a first listen at this group, I appreciated. I would consider this album more of grounge than Indie rock, but whatever. Stay useless if my favorite of the album.

Great production, great drums, great guitars and, mostly, great songs. Fall in gets a little old, but the record more than rewards you with all other tracks.

it's a spit of youth in the face.. i wish i could give it 100 but "fall in" is indigestible

Didn't like the previous album, but I love this one start to finish. One of my initial favorite albums of 2012.
