 SICK
ELECTRIC – Nuclear Winter, Endless Summer (Site)
So I’m taking my morning coffee break at work, and all I’m thinking to
myself is how there isn’t a damn thing in the world that could possibly
wake me up. Then I throw this EP into my discman. And I wake up. Hailing
from Rhode Island, this trio, I feel, will be turning some heads. “Heavy
Hammer, Soft Brains” starts off the disc with quite the bang, and I must
say, I welcomed the forthcoming screams and loud guitars with a smile.
It’s not all loud though, as they intersperse melodic riffs and softer
vocals among the heavy distortion, making for an album that actually makes
you want to listen to again and again, rather than just becoming a
redundant bore. Though I think I prefer the singer’s screams rather than
when he sings, it’s still all good in my book. As their fourth and final
song “Errors of Electrical Man” started winding down, I couldn’t
help but notice that, unfortunately, this EP doesn’t have as strong an
ending as it does beginning. I can overlook that though, because when this
band puts out a full-length disc, I do believe it will be great.- Bryana
