If there is one record that Post-Hardcore fans are missing out on: it's this one. Far-less will take on you an adventure like no other on their album Everyone Is Out To Get Us. It doesn't bend to the status quo in any form. It's random, spastic, badass, and stands entirely on it's own ground. Through the eleven songs Far-less mix up the pot in one of the most ridiculous ways you can ever imagine. The band pushes the envelope musically in a wickedly far manner with it's crashing guitars and pulsating rhythms. Brandon Welch's vocals sit smoothly on top of the chaos and his clever sarcastic "march-to-my-own-beat" lyrics almost fit perfectly with the ridiculous progression of the album. Also major props to Ray Felts (who unfortunately no longer part of the band) for putting on one of the most technical, yet unique drum performances ever. This whole thing probably sounds really fanboyish (as my rating is as well) but no doubt-Everything Is Out To Get Us is nearly a perfect album that functions as it pleases. And from that it remains one of the most unique albums in rock music.
