Attack In Black - Northern Towns

1. Northern Towns
2. Cut And Run
3. The Love Between You And I

Attack In Black have released their fourth album titled "Northern Towns." This one is a completely acoustic album and it shows off thew stripped down side of Attack In Black. These guys are an indie folk band so this album would be quite similar to that of a City and Colour or even a Passenger, so if you like those two, you could really like this album. When looking at the recording quality of this album, the album has been recorded a little raw but it adds to the style of the band. The instrumentation on this album is very stripped down but again they still play well. Now onto the vocals and the lyrics, the vocals here are not bad and again a little raw, but that is their style. He can certainly sing and is quite clear in the delivery. With the lyrics, they go back to other albums as they are previously released songs. they are about love and small towns, things that seem pretty Canadian. A decent job on the lyrics. 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. Attack In Black has done a pretty good job at stripping down a couple of their songs and playing them to the most basic. it is nice to hear songs this way sometimes and they have done it well. Listen to this album to decide for yourself what you think of their acoustics. They have since called it quits (R.I.P.)
