Album Reviews

Implosion? Not very likely. If anything, this Swedish trio should blow up all over the place with their infectious cuts that reference Stiff Little Fingers as much as The Clash. It’s folky and has touches of reggae at times but most of all, this is a prime example of a punk band going back to their roots and coming back with a sound that’s totally invigorating.

The horns are not overused and the handclaps and dubby organ sounds aren’t tiresome. But what “Implosion” is, is totally addictive and catchy. Just give songs like “Rickie” or “Quicksand” a listen and feel free to agree with me. Way to go Smalltown!
