The Third Try Club

Adore Music
I find this EP of dismal indie rock truly annoying. The singer's vocals are okay, but the vibrato thing he's got going on (that might be there for added quirkiness) makes these songs very tough to listen to without showing cottoning in my ears. It sounds like there's some sort of defect on his vocal chords (if this is the case, I'm truly sorry). Furthermore, It's not often that I have anything against lyrics, but the ones on "Social" stick out like a sore thumb, being so unoriginal and pretentious that they completely ruin any qualities there might to be found in the music (which to be honest, isn't that great either, no matter how many electronic influences that have been thrown into the mix). After this vocal torture, the last instrumental song comes as a great relief, and I duly thank God that I didn't put this EP on repeat.
