The Ascot Royals have released their debut album which happens to be self titled.This album is one that shows this band as quite the indie rock band here. These guys are not the typical indie band, they have elements of soft rock in there as well, but they fit the indie mold. We think of this band as a Arkells or Broncho, so if you like those bands, you could like this album. When looking at the recording quality of this album, the album has been recorded fairly decently and it sounds good. The instrumentation on this album is done fairly well also, the band can play and the guitar is pretty solid at times. Now onto the vocals and the lyrics, the vocals and this album are done decently and you can clearly hear the singer. He has a nice voice and it works well with the style they are going for. With the lyrics on this album, they are a little more on the sophisticated side of things but that is the type of thing the people who listen to this music are looking for. Alright lyrics here but they could use a little tweaking here and there. 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 this album. the Ascot Royals have made an album here that really sticks out. It rides the line of that more adult rock while still being for that indie lover. They have done a pretty good job overall on this album, while still being a bit different than the other bands. Listen to this album to decide for yourself what you think about it.
