(record review)WEATHERED-Stranger Here(Facedown Records)

Weathered are relatively new in Facedown Records family, this is their first full length out on that label. I listened and reviewed it for this zine.

651567

I must admit that I haven˙t listen to this band prior to laying my paws upon this record. They released three ep-s prior to releasing this new full length. This record contains ten songs of beautiful emo hardcore mixed with altrock and indie influences. What immediately fell to my ear is that the vocalist of this band kinda reminds me on Michale Graves with his voice on some songs. Maybe it is only me, who knows, but I swear I heard it. The songs are smart and well structured and they are not boring, quite the contrary the album flows nicely and I really had a great time listening to this record. My personal favorite song on this record is There Is One, but listen to the record and judge for yourself which songs are yours favorites. Lyrically, this band covers heavy themes through well written personal lyrics. This is a must record for all the fans of more melodic side od emo post hardcore.

8/10

Fat Wreck Chords is thrilled to welcome SICK OF IT ALL back to the FAT family! On November 2nd, we’ll join forces with Century Media to release their latest opus, Wake The Sleeping Dragon! We could not be more excited to be handling the CD and LP in the US, as well as the vinyl in Canada. SOIA once again teamed up with producer Jerry Farley (Lamb of God/Every Time I Die) and came out with an absolute banger. If you missed the premiere of the lead single, “Inner Vision,” Consequence of Sound has you covered. Then, once you’ve had a chance to catch your breath, pre-order your copy! Check out what SOIA had to say about returning to FAT, below:

Having a long history with both Century Media and Fat Wreck Chords, and knowing how much they care about us and the music we make, we are psyched about this joint effort! Both labels have been friends and champions of SOIA, on their roster or not.
