    A single-minded, yet ultimately baffling experience. [Apr 2014, p.95]

    The band surely know their strengths and have developed their sound, but the individual songs suffer when stacked on top of each other.

    The Eagulls’ album does a fantastic job of funneling the band’s energy. That’s the good part. But as for the subtleties--the way that players interact, the fit between chug and melody, the depth that emerges with occasional negative space--you won’t find any of that here.

I was really impressed by their look and sound which is unique but which also reminds me of early clash, bauhaus and joy division. Download all of their other EPs (on iTunes), and make yourself another 30 minute album which is just as good as this new release. Would love to see them live. I'll bet their shows are awesome. Great stuff and recommended!… Full Review »
