(review) Remy Verreault – ‘On My Own’ (High End Denim Records)

Remy Verreault is a musician based in Quebec and this is his seventh release, this time with High End Denim Records. Remy has been in the scene playing in such heavy hitters as We Love Danger, Wrong Advice, and most recently, Mark & The Wolves, but he decided to do something different and this thirteen songs are here to prove that. Yes, this is nineties influenced melodic punk rock/hardcore with no complicated riffs or philosophy, just melancholic and melodic punk hardcore heading your way with mainly fast songs, some mid tempo punk anthems topped with Remy’s excellent bit higher than most vocalists voice that fits perfectly to the songs. Backing vocals and harmonies are perfect too! Lyrics are personal and deal with everyday themes that everyone of us can relate to and songs like ‘In Order To’, or ‘Little Prince’ are about to win you over for sure, but you will have to listen to this album and other Remy’s work to find your favorites. Mine are also ‘Pisses Me Off’ and ‘Strange Times’ and above all ‘Stay Strong’. Damn, that’s already half of the album. Great one indeed!
