Set It Off. I'm not sure what genre to classify the band as. Rock,alternative, and punk I suppose. Whatever it is, I like it. The lead singer has a cool quality in his voice, and at times, makes the songs song eerie in a disturbingly good way.
"Horrible Kids" is the name of their latest EP, that was released in spring of 2011. I had discovered the band when I was watching a Choidos music video. Both bands are signed to Equal Vision records and Set It Off's video for "Breathe In Breathe Out" was in the related videos. I listened. I loved it. Then I didn't check out anything else by the band. At first that is. One of my subscribers on my YouTube channel suggested that I check them out, so I decided to listen to the full EP
"Breathe In Breathe Out" is by far the best song on the EP, its wonderful. It has alot of feeling and passion behind the vocals, catchy lyrics that are also good lyrics, and an overwhelmingly feeling over eeriness that goes with it. "My favorite weapon lies behind my teeth" the singer howls. Other favorites are "@Reply" "End in Tragedy" and the slower song "Missing You".
Overall, I'm impressed with the bands EP. (this is their second EP). I'm waiting for the full album, I think the band has alot of potential, and I hope they continue to grow and improve. The EP isn't perfect by any means, but still, its really good for an EP. I hope you guys enjoy it too. Thoughts? Leave a comment.
