I'm still behind on these, and to be honest I'm a month behind on this one, so my apologies to Alicewell. That being said, their album entitled "Wounds" is not too shabby. I think it may be a bit of a stretch to fall into any sort of pop punk categorization, but I think it may overlap a lot of fans. There's seven tracks of pop-rock goodness on this release, and I haven't found a standout-poor song on it. These fine, young, Swedish gentlemen have done a quality job of creating music that can cross genres and draw in fans from many different groups.
The album maintains a steady energy throughout, with no lulls. Take it as you will, but the tone and attitude is almost identical across every song front to back. Some people may prefer the consistency, but I would have liked to see them change some things up a bit. It's definitely not breakdown music, but a little something would have gone a long way.
