What Straight Line Stitch have delivered here is yes more than 'default'!
The second after her debut "When Skies Wash Ashore" is once again a blast and become fully pure skin.
If you like hardcore with female vocals should not simply turn go by, but a listen at least once here. If you like 'Avenged Sevenfold' or 'Shadows Fall' and perhaps 'In This Moment', 'Otep' or 'Walls of Jericho' is good, the could also "Straight Line Stitch" fallen.
Compare this band with "The Happy" is like apples and oranges. Of course, the CD does not sound just like the predecessor, but Alexis Brown has not forgotten how to Shouten. Or maybe a matter of taste!
I have heard this CD now been several times and am far from tired of it!
In any case, you should make sure the IMPORT version to buy, there are namely 2 more tracks on it which are not to be despised.
My Anspieltips: Tear Down The Sky, No tomorrow, Sound Of Silence and Ashes In The Wind ... or best one runs purely the whole CD.
... I just say "Buy or Die!"
