Frontman John Kevill's performance is particularly noteworthy, as are his well-chosen words, projecting a world-weariness and honesty that's disarming and poignant against a backdrop of sheer musical aggression.
When I was younger, I used to think the world would only get better during my life. I know now that isn't the case.
The track is a compact riffer and a proper choice for a single with its four-minute, hit-and-run duration. There's no room for gangly compositional flourishes or half-baked ideas.
These guys just keep getting better. Their follow-up album, Wrath and Ruin, comes with the built-in expectation that it will be somehow leaner, fiercer, and stronger.
