| 4.5 superb | Tom R. CONTRIBUTOR | July 11th 20 |
An album way ahead of it's time, Pass the Flask is an exceptional debut that makes the band's follow-
ups even more disappointing in comparison. Everything is pure unadulterated chaos, with more energy
than an eight year old who ate an entire pack of Haribo Tangfastics and escaped his parents into the
soft play area. The frenetic and at times incomprehensible vocals sell this as much as anything.
Looking back at this today it's obvious the kind of questionable influence it's had - the MySpace
scene kid era is only a couple years removed with this clearly being a stepping stone on the long
line of progress towards the breakdown-laden metalcore that's so maligned. But the difference here is
that when breakdowns are used they have an actual purpose beyond being 'heavy', and the concept
doesn't reach the levels of abuse later artists would take. With the current revival movement for the
early days of the scene, Pass the Flask is definitely a hallmark worth being reminded of. It's just a
shame that they could never replicate it.
