End Of April have released their second album titled "Shattered". This album shows the band in a light of trying to be a metalcore band with keyboards in it. The band is doing just an okay job here on this album. This band is in with the As I Lay Dying, Unearth sound. When looking at the recording quality of this album, the recordings themselves don't exactly sound the greatest but they are not unlistenable, and the band does seem to be able to play so thats a good thing but the keyboards seem a little oddly placed in this music. Now onto the lyrics and vocals, the background vocals, being the singer, need some work for sure and the screams are just alright. With the lyrics, these are also on the average side, but thats also okay. If you are looking for a single for this album, there isn't one, so just pick any song and give it a listen so you know what the album sounds like. End Of April have a good start here with the talent of the instruments, now just with a little better recording and some more progression, this band could really work with this. Listen to this album to decide for yourself what you think of it. They have since called it quits (R.I.P.)
