Redcoat - MMXV

1. Burn Beside Me

2. Enter/Exit

3. Spin

4. Silver Springs

Redcoat have released their debut album titled "MMXV." This album really hit hard and goes for the 90's grunge style that seems to be pretty dead as of late. They really bring the rock and have a nicely produced sound here. They have a similar sound to that of Silverchair or a Smashing Pumpkins, so if you are into those bands, you could like this album. They have done a pretty good job here. When looking at the recording quality of this album, the band has recorded this album quite well and gotten the loud fullness out in the tracks. The instrumentation is pretty decent here, the band can certainly play and it is shown off in each of these four songs. We really think they do a solid job on the playing hard and fast without going overboard. Now onto the vocals and lyrics, the vocals here are done really well, the vocalist has a hard, heavy, screamed voice that projects really well and gives you the feel of how he is putting everything into these songs. We really feel the passion and can clearly hear all the words which is hard to do while putting that much passion into the songs. With the lyrics, the bands goes for messages of living fast with someone, relationships and being alone. A few of these topics we can tell people will feel and be able to relate, so this will be easier for the listener to get into the music. If you are looking for a single to this album, there isn't one, so just pick a song and give it a listen to get the feel of the album. Redcoat have done a really nice job on their debut welcome to album. This has the sound and the hard punch that will get you into it fast. We think this band has hit something right from the get go. Great job overall. Now just get out and play more. Listen to this album to decide for yourself what you think of it.
