(review) Dan Cribb & The Isolated – ‘I’ll Follow You Anywhere(PEE Records)

Dan Cribb & The Isolated started as a solo project for WA singer-songwriter Dan Cribb, former vocalist and bassist of The Decline. But, along the way it became so much more and something really beautiful. Dan was joined by Scott Connor (guitar/vocals) and Brennan Pagels (drums),. This new opus contains eleven songs which continue with way they started. That means beautiful heartfelt emotional punk rock. There is lots of melody in this one, especially in vocal lines which are so sweet and some of the songs, like for example chorus of ‘The Best of Whatever’ brought goosebumps upon my skin while listening to the album. I must admit that I enjoyed listening this album as one whole, these songs stirred up something in me which brought smile to my face and that is definitely not often the case. Songs are mainly in mid tempo punk rock, so don’t expect fast hardcore melodic skate punk frenzy with this album, but there are lots of tempo changes, pop punk sensibilities and for all that is worth, great songwriting to top it all. Some of my other personal favorites on this one are: ‘Addicted For Life’, ‘Fade Away’, ‘Full Circle’. This one is a keeper!

The songs take deep inspiration from the universal feeling of being trapped, emotionally, physically and financially inside one’s work place. This thought-provoking track shines a spotlight on the mundanity of workplace life, inviting listeners to reflect on the everyday experiences that shape our existence.

While also acting as a critique of the societal model we each all act out our lives in, working to live and living to work. ‘Get Away’ offers a poignant portrayal of the repetitive nature of our daily and the monotony that can permeate our lives. The frustration and anger that can fester with in us is articulated through fast paced riffs, powerful raw vocals and a drum beat you feel resonating in your head.

The lyrics resonate with those who have felt the monotony of commuting, the repetition of meetings, and the longing for something more meaningful in their professional lives. This single serves as a reminder to seek purpose and fulfilment beyond the confines of the nine-to-five routine.

Chaver signs with BDHW and releases new single ‘Eternal Night’!

‘ETERNAL NIGHT’ is the first of three singles on Chaver’s way to the upcoming album ‘OF GLOOM’, which will be released at the end of September ’23 on the major underground label BDHW Records.

Perfectly suited for all Death Metal fans, Sludge, Black Metal or Heavy Hardcore.
