Album Reviews
Sound The Sirens
6.5
- by Tom Dumarey
If you’re like me and got into punkrock through 90ies Epitaph/Fat Wreck releases, then ‘Sound The Sirens’ will feel a bit like going back in time.
On album number four, Southern California skatepunks Chaser will make you think of everyone from early Rise Against and Pennywise to Bad Religion, Ignite and No Use For A Name. Often in the same song. In the span of give or take 10 seconds. It’s all double-time drums, big melodic hooks, solid shredding and all the whoa’s you could possibly ask for.
Original? Hardly. But damned if it doesn’t sound good.
