Here is yet another bitter, angry, pissed off band. Man, what are all these bands so angry about these days any way? I don't know. All I know is when I crank this CD far passed what I'm supposed to and pull into the parking lot of 711, the little homie girlies there getting there rap blasted out give me a strange look. Imagine the scene- two girls, cars next to each other, pumping out the new Puff Daddy or whatever shit. Then I pull up, blaring this through my speakers. Oh the sight alone is worth it.
In case you weren't aware, Examination of the... is a cross between Converge and Love Lost But Not Forgotten, to put it in simplest terms. They start with a song called "An ocean of lust", which is more of an intro than a song, and I usually find myself skipping over it. But right after that it hits you. I particularly enjoy the song "The feeling is always/never".
There are a lot of bands that you could say "Oh that part of that song sounds like...", but there are few actual bands that sound- on a whole- like Examination of the... , and I think that's a bad thing. We definitely need more bands that sound like these guys. Seriously, more of this, less Hatebreed rip offs.
