WHAT TO EXPECT FROM… DOWNLOAD PILOT 2021 What more can be said about Creeper in any capacity? Wherever and whenever they show up, they’re going to be excellent, and with a new EP on the way that’s already giving off that exact same vibe, a set like this is a guaranteed home run before they’ve even steppedonstage.
BODIES – THE SOUNDBOARD Posts about Bodies written by thesoundboardreviews. Even as an improvement to their current lacklustre wave, AFI’s newest album is too slight and forgettable to have much of an impact. THE SOUNDBOARD’S WORST ALBUMS OF 2020 Luke Nuttall (Editor / Writer) Theory Of A Deadman Say Nothing. Sure, it’s an easy target, but watching Theory Of A Deadman continuously immolate literally every scrap of good will they’ve ever picked up will never not be baffling, mostly because it’s hard to even deduce who would want an album like Say Nothing.This is a bored, glazed-over pop-rock album that’s quickly been memory NOWHERE SPECIAL RECORDINGS Posts about Nowhere Special Recordings written by thesoundboardreviews. In this Review Round-Up, big returns from Wolf Alice and Hacktivist find themselves nestled against failures from Atreyu, cleopatrick and plxntkid, as well as new music from REVIEW ROUND-UP: WOLF ALICE, ATREYU, HACKTIVIST Hacktivist have always had the mentality of working at their own pace, and it’s surprising that it’s only just now catching up with them. Their debut Outside The Box took a long while to arrive, but when it did, its fusion of tech-metal and grime still felt fresh, and arguably the most cutting-edge form of rap-metal at the time.That was in 2016 though, and between grime falling away in ALBUM REVIEW: WATERPARKS Maybe even more than that though, Greatest Hits feels like one of the most consistent platforms yet to justify Awsten Knight as a songwriter who’s far smarter and more insightful than he’s given credit.It’s often striking how the writing on Waterparks songs will contrast the persona that they give off, particularly online, but Greatest Hits brings together an impressively tight ALBUM REVIEW: ARCHITECTS A song like Black Lungs is an obvious scene-setter, a broadside at those in power who are well aware of the responsibilities they have to make change and yet continue to deny or shirk, but For Those That Wish To Exist is a far more pragmatic listen than just resting on that one side of the argument.

ALBUM REVIEW: HOLDING ABSENCE ALBUM REVIEW: Holding Absence – ‘The Greatest Mistake Of My Life’. Maybe it was a bit premature to expect Holding Absence to spearhead an entirely new branch of Britrock, mostly because theirs is a sound that feels as though it only has room for one real success story, and at that point in time, even they themselves weren’t atthat
ALBUM REVIEW: ‘I LET IT IN AND IT TOOK EVERYTHING’ BY Sometimes it can feel like heavy music scenes are the only places where musical experimentation is actually allowed to flourish. Be it less pressure to shift units than more mainstream-centric acts or a more open listener-base who can be willing to dip further out of their comfort zone, but the current generation of hardcore and metal bands really are leading the charge when it comes to the ALBUM REVIEW: TWENTY ONE PILOTS The rollout for Scaled And Icy has felt very non-traditional for Twenty One Pilots, and that might be cause for concern for them.They’ve become known for having one of the most rapacious and hostile stan armies of anyone not from South Korea, who’d usually delight in poring over any insignificant morsel of information to predict a new era, but no such phenomenon has occurred this time.

ALBUM REVIEW: ‘BLOOD RUSH DÉJÀ VU’ BY SUNSET SONS But on the whole, Blood Rush Déjà Vu is just so uneventful as an album that it’s difficult to know what to really say.

Though even despite that, after the sluggishness of both Burials and The Blood Album, the fact that Bodies does have a bit more of an uptick in pace is a nice sign overall.The needle has shifted far towards pop-rock in the overall vibrancy and fizziness that goes on, and when you’ve got a vocalist like Davey Havok that traffics in a lot of showmanship and bravado, there’s a nice payoff THE SOUNDBOARD’S WORST ALBUMS OF 2020 The more thought that’s given to this album, the more its spot on a worst of the year list seems justified.

ALBUM REVIEW: ‘AMERICAN SUN’ BY FIRE FROM THE GODS ALBUM REVIEW: ‘American Sun’ by Fire From The Gods. For all the bands in hard rock and metal circles current immersed in dissecting the current political state of the US, it’s safe to say that Fire From The Gods have probably made the biggest impression on a sonic level. Their inclusion within that scene can’t really be debated,but
ALBUM REVIEW: ‘THE CORRELATION BETWEEN ENTRANCE AND EXIT The relationship between metalcore and nostalgia is an interesting one, mostly because there’s never really been a general consensus on where the most potent nostalgic stimulus falls. It’s still a relatively new genre for one, and while emo and post-hardcore have recently been reaching back to their mid-2000s variants to capitalise on that familiarity factor, JUNE 2021 – THE SOUNDBOARD 3 posts published by thesoundboardreviews during June 2021. Even as an improvement to their current lacklustre wave, AFI’s newest album is too slight and forgettable to have much of an impact. ALBUM REVIEW: RISE AGAINST The sound doesn’t hurt either, mind, even with a lack of retooling that, to be perfectly honest, has never really been needed. At least on Broken Dreams, Inc. and Monarch, there’s a bit more of a regular punk bite that’s appreciated, but by now, Rise Against’s bread-and-butter is well-known, and they’re still great at pulling it off.The arena-rock sensibilities of the title track andALBUM REVIEW: AFI
Though even despite that, after the sluggishness of both Burials and The Blood Album, the fact that Bodies does have a bit more of an uptick in pace is a nice sign overall.The needle has shifted far towards pop-rock in the overall vibrancy and fizziness that goes on, and when you’ve got a vocalist like Davey Havok that traffics in a lot of showmanship and bravado, there’s a nice payoff REVIEW ROUND-UP: WOLF ALICE, ATREYU, HACKTIVIST Hacktivist have always had the mentality of working at their own pace, and it’s surprising that it’s only just now catching up with them. Their debut Outside The Box took a long while to arrive, but when it did, its fusion of tech-metal and grime still felt fresh, and arguably the most cutting-edge form of rap-metal at the time.That was in 2016 though, and between grime falling away in THE SOUNDBOARD’S WORST ALBUMS OF 2020 The more thought that’s given to this album, the more its spot on a worst of the year list seems justified. The fact that Steve Harris – he of Iron Maiden fame and a metal legend through and through – lends his services to British Lion should make for an easy win, but the fact that The Burning is such a monumental failure is just ALBUM REVIEW: HOLDING ABSENCE ALBUM REVIEW: Holding Absence – ‘The Greatest Mistake Of My Life’. Maybe it was a bit premature to expect Holding Absence to spearhead an entirely new branch of Britrock, mostly because theirs is a sound that feels as though it only has room for one real success story, and at that point in time, even they themselves weren’t atthat
ALBUM REVIEW: ARCHITECTS A song like Black Lungs is an obvious scene-setter, a broadside at those in power who are well aware of the responsibilities they have to make change and yet continue to deny or shirk, but For Those That Wish To Exist is a far more pragmatic listen than just resting on that one side of the argument. Carter will target people who persecute those KELE – THE SOUNDBOARD Posts about Kele written by thesoundboardreviews. In this Review Round-Up, there are disappointments from Red Fang, easy life and Kele, strong emo from Hot Mulligan and Latewaves, and more from Blackberry Smoke, Boss Keloid and Worm Shepherd. ALBUM REVIEW: ‘I LET IT IN AND IT TOOK EVERYTHING’ BY Sometimes it can feel like heavy music scenes are the only places where musical experimentation is actually allowed to flourish. Be it less pressure to shift units than more mainstream-centric acts or a more open listener-base who can be willing to dip further out of their comfort zone, but the current generation of hardcore and metal bands really are leading the charge when it comes to theLUKE NUTTALL
Posts about Luke Nuttall written by thesoundboardreviews. Just as punk will never die, neither will its all-stars. The Clash and The Ramones ALBUM REVIEW: TWENTY ONE PILOTS The rollout for Scaled And Icy has felt very non-traditional for Twenty One Pilots, and that might be cause for concern for them.They’ve become known for having one of the most rapacious and hostile stan armies of anyone not from South Korea, who’d usually delight in poring over any insignificant morsel of information to predict a new era, but no such phenomenon has occurred this time. ALBUM REVIEW: ROYAL BLOOD ALBUM REVIEW: Royal Blood – ‘Typhoons’. There’s always been an inevitability surrounding Royal Blood and how their rise wasn’t to last. Carrying themselves like the biggest and best band in the world at their height was all well and good, but it’s also worth remembering that their hugely acclaimed debut came at a lucrative timefor
ALBUM REVIEW: THE OFFSPRING Perhaps the most glaring example of that comes in The Offspring’s vanity around being a punk band, and how the particular course correction on Let The Bad Times Roll is so evidently geared in that direction.There’s clearly an acknowledgment made of the turbulence of modern times, and how the cloud of darkness only seems to descend further and further, which is probably the absolute ALBUM REVIEW: ‘MILK TEETH’ BY MILK TEETH ALBUM REVIEW: ‘Milk Teeth’ by Milk Teeth.

ALBUM REVIEW: THE PRETTY RECKLESS February 9, 2021.
