The Sound of Animals Fighting - The Ocean and the Sun
95

In my opinion, a masterpiece. Amazing energy throughout, and the instrumental work is so GOOD. Also Anthony Green sings in this album, and he is one of my favourite singers :-) Other singer (Rich Balling) is also great. Would recommend to anyone who likes some fast paced modern progressive rock music. You could skip the intro and interlude tracks though, they can overstay their welcome.

As Tall as Lions - As Tall as Lions

Solid album. The vocalist of this band really reminds me of Walk The Moon singer Petricca (which is a compliment, I love Petricca). First track (Stab City) is excellent, and easily the best song IMO. Which is a little disappointing on your first listen-through, when the first song sets your expectations high and none of the following tracks hit the same spot. Nevertheless, the other songs, bar a couple, still are still very good songs, there are none that I would skip.

Day Drinker - 3/5 - A rare redeeming part of the album, in that it's not explicitly bad. Outro's pretty good. Worst lyric - "My frenemy lives in town and I see him almost twice a week"

Traps - 3/5 - Okay moments instrumentally and vocally. Lyrically, appalling. Worst lyrics - "Strutting 'round here in those pumpum shorts" + "Meet me in the boom boom room and we can do what you like"

You Should Know The Truth - 2/5 - Boring and generic sounding.

First time hearing this band, very much enjoyed the entire album. The vocalists sound good together, I just wish the screamy guy (whatever his name may be) had more prominence throughout. His parts in track 1 and 3 are some highlights for me.
