A six-song release from a band that only started playing together in 2015. Bad Religion and Millencolin are the starting point here, but I’m confident that they are on the right path. Their creativity shines brightly on songs like “Stale” and the title track. Is “Battering Ram” a tip of the cap to their favorite metal band and one of their albums? Someday the world may get the answer. –Sean Koepenick (Self-released, [email protected])
