I suppose I can talk about some songs for now, better to split it up than jam them all up on like Sunday/Monday and lose interest in writing stuff about them

The Gun Club - Give Up the Sun

I think this tries a little too hard to be an epic with its slow accelerating pace which I don't normally associate with post-punk. That said, it's a solid track, the vocalist's voice almost reminds me a bit of a mix of Jim Morrison and David Byrne, and I found myself enjoying the ending of it quite a bit. Give Up the Sun isn't the catchiest of slogans but man does the guy give his energy to make it sound like such.

Glassjaw - Jesus Glue
Decent riff at the beginning, their vocalist and session reminds me signficantly of bands like Deftones and A Perfect Circle, which I approve of significantly. I was worried that the song was going to plateau, but then all of a sudden the bridge happened. The breakdowns seem a little bit forced, but apart from that, excellent song.


If I'm not done with rankings by Sunday, then I'm leaving. This isn't a challenge to you all, but it's more a challenge to myself to invigorate myself to talk more about these songs. If I'm not holding myself to some sort of standard, then I don't think I belong here.
