The vocalist is unique and perfect. The screams are actually appealing to me (I'm picky about those). This band blends instrumentals reminiscent of a time when instruments told a story (old school artistry) with modern sounds sprinkled in.
I love the way this album brings momentum with it. I feel like on the journey of listening to this body of work, we're constantly moving at a decent pace. Like I'm going somewhere, or I'm getting something significant accomplished.
I would compare their skill level for composition to early Fall Out Boy or current I the Mighty. Not that they sound like either of those bands. They are definitely different than both. I'm just saying they're on the same level. I think that black veil brides fans would enjoy this band because of the artistry in the instruments
Still Flyin'
The way this band started off this album reminded me of the way TCTT opened Nerve endings. This song has a great build up. It was the perfect beginning to this album. I also feel like it showcases most of the amazing things about this band, which is a valuable thing to have in a first track, because it will help ensure that the listener doesn't go anywhere.
Lysie Royalton
Starts out like raindrops and quickly shifts to being in a hurry instrumentally, to shooting stars
Seam's George VW
sounds like a bit of a mess, but an organized mess. There's a lot going on at once. It sounds busy, but not bad. It's what I imagine the inside of my head would sound like if it were translated to song.
Wisteria
is definitely a little more in-your-face than the other tracks, but it's just as beautiful as the rest.
I like the way that there's speaking at towards the end of this song as if it's hinting towards the pivital point of the next track. The music box at the completion of this song is fabulous
Quick Hands//Arms Length
Is mostly spoken word, which to be honest in most cases I simply detest. But the fact that they've blended it with smooth vocals may be what helped me to enjoy it. I can't imagine this song done any other way. This is the perfect ending to the ep.
