Here is a CD offering up four more tracks from the promising Scottish Punk Rock band that is A Close Last. This CD lasts for a total of 11 minutes and 18 seconds and carries on from where the band left off with their ‘Who Took The Jam Out Your Donut?!’ EP.
The first three tracks on this here EP show off the bands great talent for making melodic Punk Rock music with three fine tracks that have awesome guitar playing, skilful drumming and outstanding vocals that really make you wonder to yourself why this band haven’t been snapped up and signed yet. The music here is of an extremely high standard and just like with the last EP, the songs are catchy and full of zest. The music which they produce is fun to listen to and just makes you want to have a good time – it has a real feel good factor about it. My favourite of the three is ‘Where Are You Now’ as on this track the band show much talent with fast drumming, tuneful guitar playing and really melodic vocals with lyrics that you remember as soon as you have heard them and are the sort of ones that you will be humming for months as it is really catchy stuff and an a truly awesome tune. The forth track however is something different to the first three with more of a hardcore tune and I remember them doing this last time. It is a cool song with really hard hitting, raw edge vocals, fast drumming and eerie guitars. I really liked this one and thought it was just as well done as the other tracks on this CD so with this song the band are showing that they can pull off a more melodic approach yet they can also pull off more hardcore music with a rawer sound.
The outro is really funny with a mobile going off, someone answering with the standard ‘Hello’ and then followed by the band saying ‘No matter what anyone says about us, we’re still ACL from the block, we use to have a little but now we’ve got fuck all!’ This really cracked me up the first time I heard it and just about sums up what its like being in a band – broke! Check this band out if you are interested in melodic Punk Rock CD has been done really well and the band are well worth checking out.
