\"\"This new 7\u201d from San Diego 3 piece My Iron Lung<\/strong> features the perfect ingredients for a screamo\/post\u00a0hardcore record; ambient glory, raw desperate vocals, and real human words and storytelling.<\/p>\n

The overall layout of each track features strained throaty vocals which beautifully contrast with the\u00a0soothing ambiance and paper thin guitars carried with thudding drum beats. This is the surname\u00a0they all share but they each carry a unique trait of personality about them. Whether it\u2019s the clickety\u00a0clack percussion of \u2018Here to the Collaborative Effort Made by All Things Under the Sun\u2019<\/em> or the short\u00a0croons found towards the end of \u2018Broken Homes\u2019<\/em>, the band have a real knack for being creative and\u00a0interesting within the dynamics of their own sound.\u00a0The delivery and structure of the music gets progressively better, track by track, piece by piece,\u00a0eventually leaving you to stand and admire the picture that is being displayed once the puzzle has\u00a0been completed.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The strongest element of this record is the oxymoronic relationship that is shared between the lyrics\u00a0and the music itself. Whilst the lyrics speak of deteriorating and problematic personal relationships\u00a0with oneself or the loved ones cryptically mentioned, the music just gives a contrasting atmosphere\u00a0that is both soothing and calming to the nerves despite such dark content being unfurled from an\u00a0emotional poetic ramble as if from a man in a lonesome eerie room with only four walls to reconcile\u00a0with.<\/p>\n

All in all, ‘Grief’<\/em> by My Iron Lung is a wonderful listen from tracks 1 to 5; it shows massive potential\u00a0from a band who are still in their infancy trying to the use of their two feet and without a doubt have\u00a0the capacity to create records that will take a new spin on the classic screamo sound which they have\u00a0adopted. I look forward to hearing more from them.<\/p>\n

3.5\/5<\/p>\n

‘Grief’<\/em> 7" by My Iron Lung<\/strong> is available now on Pure Noise Records<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
