It\u2019s the latest in a serious of bold steps, having previously dealt with the works of Franz Kafka and Auguste Rodin within their own genre of philosopher core, which is kind of post-hardcore cum post-metal, and is basically heavy as shit, riddled with atmospheric passages and best served cold, all alone in a dark room.<\/p>\n<p>Suffice to say, if it\u2019s radio-friendly bangers you are after then steer well clear, this is a record that embraces the epic, is filled with grandiosity and is quite simply a magnificently artistic journey of reflection and catharsis. Sure, it requires patience, sure, it\u2019s not going to be everyone\u2019s cup of tea, but if you take your art seriously, give it a spin &#8211; this record is massive.

It\u2019s attacking stuff from the word go as <i>&#8216;Lying for A Living<\/i> hammers away with relentless riffing and a rough and ready vocal. The rest of the EP follows in a similar fashion, the main variations coming in pace and undercurrent &#8211; <i>&#8216;Tuesday Blues\u2019<\/i> for instance is blessed with a sinister-sounding bass lick, while <i>&#8216;Long Gone\u2019<\/i> stands out for its emotional edge.<\/p>\n<p>However, they don\u2019t stray far from the hardcore path, which is plenty aggressive enough and is good headbanging fun, it\u2019s just a little sonically limited, although guest vocals from the likes of Adam Carroll add another dimension.

Not that this is necessarily a bad thing, compared to the majority of bands around at the moment, they sound different and have a sincere energy that comes forward in their bass slapping, funky riffing and rap-rock vocals.<\/p>\n<p>However, it\u2019s when they put their own stamp on a track that the record works best; <i>&#8216;Tables Turn\u2019<\/i>, for instance, has a cracking instrumental section, while the serious bass groove of <i>&#8216;Walk On The Moon\u2019<\/i> hints at some real potential. Nevertheless, songs like the RHCP-esque <i>&#8216;Fingerprint\u2019<\/i> are still enjoyable if familiar.

There is plenty of axe to the punky riffs, yet the raucous drinking song feel of the brass and the guitar lines lends it an infectious bounce. <i>&#8216;Heavy Hitters\u2019<\/i> is a particularly good example of what they can do, but tracks like <i>&#8216;The Dream\u2019<\/i>, <i>&#8216;Left Corner\u2019<\/i> and the frantic <i>&#8216;Wheel of Fortune\u2019<\/i> are just a few of the other high points.

Given the current climate of sexual behaviour being under such scrutiny, the sincerity on display here makes for essential listening.<\/p>\n<p>At times they go straight ahead punky with songs like <i>&#8216;Home Is Run No More<\/i>, yet they also know how to work a folk melody, as on the quirky <i>&#8216;Given\u2019<\/i>.
