Though they're only a couple full-lengths and a raw EP into their career, Tiny Moving Parts have established themselves as one of the more worthwhile bands the "emo-revival" scene has to offer. This, their debut LP, shows exactly why. The guitars have the twinkly guitar sound down as good as any band has done it since American Football disbanded. The drums are fun, yet subtly intricate, which is very reminiscent of This Town Needs Guns in that regard. The vocals are a cathartic mix of singing and shouting that while on an initial listen may seem grating, but are emotional and well done. The lack of a standout track on this thing does impede it's progress a bit, but it is remarkably consistent and doesn't let up in quality. If you have twenty-six minutes and love the math rock/emo combo, then this should be right up your alley.
