Review Summary: Twinspan refuse to grew up...

It is a lot more honest for me simply say this is a bad project. Made by people that I dislike. Instead of trying to be optimistic, I am simply going to say that there are much better bands even locally in Louisana that are much more worthy of your time.

I no longer wish to look back in anger at these people. This band, the music they made. It simply isn't good.

What can I say?

Everything done here is done better elsewhere.

The bass is forgettable, the vocals are boring and strained. The drums are completely blown out and as always the production is bad.

The songs bleed together and nothing stands out.
Much like in the bouts of my mania when everything is cloudy.
There is nothing to be found.
Only disapointment.

Didn't seem necessary to mention that you were put-up to this review.

The review itself is also lacking in terms of content, is structured poorly, and has quite a few technical errors. I think this ended up becoming more personal than it needed to be/you inserted yourself in the work a lot, which led to some odd statements that bore an odd attitude.

"Metalcore has been done to death lately and Twinspan surprisingly does (Metalcore) some justice for once"

I also fundamentally disagree with this statement, since the genre has been full of amazing releases lately. Look past the mainstream and I think this is obvious.

I think you are Twinspan's bass player, EXPOSED ;)

j/k but yeah, like Mars said, leave the reasons for reviewing this out and focus on the band and the album, like who are them, what does this sound like, is it a debut, if not how it sounds compared to their other releases?

That's all from me!

"I recommend today instead of listening to more stroke yourself sad tunes from the likes of NMH and Death Grips you stop stroking your collective hipster cocks and listen to Twinspan."

i know you're trying to be funny but you're bad at it please stop

I find writing reviews to be fun. Generally speaking. This one I did kinda shit out as the bassist of this band reached out to me and begged me to give this project a chance. Since we had... For lack of a better word "beef" it was not something I really wanted to do and I wrote this very shitty review in like 10 minutes or so.

I have written quite a lot - Writing reviews, especially music reviews is something I am trying to get better at. I took a very long break and only came back once I thought I could write a review that was for an album that others should hear or once I actually had something to say.

I regret writing this review.

I dislike this band, I think they are boring and pretentious. I just wanted to feel better about myself for mercilessly tearing them a new asshole on numerous occasions but alas...

I simply didn't have it in my to not be a complete asshole. So anything else just comes out forced.

I guess if there is any silver lining.
I am happier now than I was back then.
