A breakdown every few seconds? Check. Programmed micorkorg driven dance sequences? Check. Regressing as a band every release? Check, check, check.
Giving a track my track account of this release would be pointless. It's the same process: breakdown, dance, repeat. There was virtually no change from the first release (Someday Came Suddenly) in which at the very least held a few catchy lines. Even through multiple line-up changes the only thing new at all about Attack Attack! is the shift from Drop C to the ever-loved Drop B. If there was anything else "new" to this cd that I missed, it was drowned out by the mundane chug-chugging and autotuning for Christ fest.
However, there was one thing that caught my attention: the introduction to Smokahontas is, at its best, cute. The trance/dubstep-shift-into-breakdown was entertaining in all honesty. But that's all. That is the highlight of the entire cd. The singing is sub-par even without considering the autotune. The screaming is definitely some of the most cookie-cutter I've heard in a while.
If you enjoy chugs, autotunecore, and xbreakdownzx, this is your cup of tea. Stay the **** away from me.
Things to Enjoy:
-The first 12 seconds of "Smokahontas".
Things That Suck:
-Anything on the cd other than the first 12 seconds of "Smokahontas". |
