Sawhooks and Chains is a really instant track; tuneful, proggy and with a dreamy edge, reminiscent of Cave In (in their less heavy era). It has a deep, heavy and expansive sound (bringing to mind Tool at times)but has such a groove and is so melodic that you can’t help moving to it; a really appealing and addictive quality. The two tracks almost run together so that you don’t notice when the next one has started, this isn’t a bad thing though as you get a seamless experience and the melodies at the core of each track are very different and distinctive. ‘Call Me Ishael’ starts with a gentle riff before moving into chunky riffs, lovely vocal harmonies and the kind of guitar sound that makes you rock out trancelike, with your eyes shut. A great single from an obviously talented home grown band and luckily we get to hear more from them soon, with a mini album expected in the new year.
