| 3.5 great | Alucard125 | November 30th 10 |
A much simpler album, but works really well for the most part. 'Elongo' is the best track on the record, and one of their best songs to date. The usual pretty stuff is found in 'May You Be The Road' and 'Mountain Top'. 'No One Moves, No One Gets Hurt' is dull, but a very solid album overall.

Though its minimalistic approach my initially deter steadfast Soundclash fans, the band’s fourth full-length LP, Light the Horizon is an album that seems to yield more to its listener upon repetition. While the absence of the bands former drummer does make a slight alteration to the overall rhythm of the band, this, for the most part, seems like a blessing in disguise; new-comer Sekou Lumumba is more than an adequate replacement, and even seems far more technical and creative. Granted, the record feels much more like a Jay Malinowski outing, finding bassist Eon Sinclair’s lines either overly simplified or downgraded to more of a background noise to what makes for a mellow-atmosphere sound. On the whole the overall product still feels weaker than the band’s breakout record, Sounding a Mosaic; that being said, however, this still has more of a growth potential than the previous outing in 2007’s Street Gospels. If fans will take anything from this disc, it should be that the band, though suffering from a bit of a stutter-step, does seem committed to the growth and progression of their overall sound; hopefully this works out for the best for both band and fan alike.
