I was a bit dubious of this one when the press one-sheet listed Rise Against as an influence. But the fearless reviewers here at the ‘cake have to keep an open mind, correct? Musically, everything was tight and moved along forcefully from song to song. I was hoping for a bit more melody in the vocals department. This issue seemed to be remedied as the record played on. “Who Threw Out the Itinerary?” and “Frame Your Favorite Pictures” were the choice cuts here for me. May take a while to grow on me, but it’s a good effort here.
