Details

The debut album from The Story So Far. These 11 songs do burst with the cathartic desperation of the former and the boundless urgency of the latter. Rough but catchy, raw but well-recorded, songs such as High Regard and the terse, broken-hearted indictment of Mt. Diablo threaten to burst with youthful, angst-ridden aggression. While these are powerful, punchy anthems, there are subtleties and nuances in the arrangements that elevate the likes of Quicksand and Daughters to be more than just another batch of angry songs sung by frustrated young men.
