\"Aiden After a 4 year hiatus, Seattle goth-punk outfit Aiden<\/b> mark a return to usher in a new dawn in their chronicles, with frontman Wil Francis left as the only original member to fill the rest of the chapters.<\/p>\n

The sharp, disorientating twangs of the miserable \u2018Our Gang\u2019s Dark Oath\u2019<\/i> makes a sombre return in the one-minute-rager \u2018Incinerate\u2019<\/i>, where vocalist Wil Francis reverts to a snarling teen disposition evident on the aforementioned record.<\/p>\n

The band\u2019s distinct punk thread is present again, subjecting listeners to macabre theatrical punk tinge that has secured the band as 00\u2019s post-hardcore greats. \u2019Eternal Halloween\u2019<\/i> has a dooming bounce that becomes a backdrop for Francis to narrate the sordid underbelly of the infamous holiday like a disciple of Danzig. Francis\u2019 warning is personified in his own femme fatale – \u201dShe\u2019s out tonight with the devil\u2019s hand and philistine eyes.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u2019The Ceremony\u2019<\/i> revives the heavy gloom \u2018Conviction\u2019<\/i>-era that runs with an urgency that comes with the sudden impact of anger that Francis describes for the subject saying, \u201cHe was obliged to feel the hate of all mankind.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n

On this self titled effort, Aiden<\/b> have covered all the checkpoints of the band\u2019s sound with a record that draws all their milestones together.<\/p>\n

4\/5<\/p>\n

\u2019Aiden\u2019<\/em> by Aiden<\/strong> is released on 30th October.<\/p>\n
