I found out about this band when I was looking at Hum's followers on allMusic.
I would say that they're much better than Armor For Sleep or Hopesfall! This album rocks harder than the more spacious debut ep. It opens with a muted guitar and vocals, soon bursting out to full-fledged assault. An that's just in one fish wrap...factory. The ballad "Luxembourg" shows the mellow side of Lahuna, and it's also the opening track to the album for J. Robbins' son. There's interesting material all around, though some songs are bit dragged out. Overall, its a good 1st album. Best songs are "Fish Wrap Factory", "Lottery Pick", and "Way Of The Buffalo". For fans of Quicksand, Helmet, Cave In, Failure, Hum, Shiner, etc. |
