None Of The Above/Swound - Split EP

There is a review of these 3 Swound tracks elsewhere on the site so if you were looking at this review for what I thought about Swound then you can find the review on the review page as I reviewed this one a while back.

So, here are 4 new tracks from the band None Of The Above and to be honest, they are nothing like I remember them, since the ‘Them VS Them EP’ they have made what was once a good band a great band and they now seem to have a more refined sound and have a better idea of what it is exactly that they are trying to achieve. Here are 4 tracks which show that the band have matured and the small flaws which were once there seem to have vanished and all there is now is a top notch band with a hell of a lot of potential. They are a post hardcore outfit that are at the moment, doing all the right things and playing all the right notes as the outcome of these 4 tracks is an amazing display of the talent which they possess. They are all great songs but my favourite out of the 4 has to be ‘Take One For The Team’ as it has a certain growl about it which just really impressed me and put a smile on my face as it has an amazing structure that just totally blew me away. This is a band that are doing their own thing and the stuff which they are coming up with by doing their own thing is totally amazing and it is just so totally original that you cant begin to imagine how many influences they must take in – but whatever they have been listening to has definitely been some great inspiration! This is an extremely exciting band and it is amazing to see how much they have improved their sound and become such a well established band with great potential to go on to become an astonishing band. If they continue to progress at this rate then it will not be long before they are one of the leading bands in the UK as they have come a long way in such a little space of time and this 4 track effort from them shows that they are capable of great things and you can never be quite sure what to expect from this band. They are setting a trend rather than following one and it is good to see a unique style being used by the band and with their post hardcore style they are sure to blow you away.
