Sounds like: Rock
"Vices" sets things off properly. The track is filled with high energy and really showcases the Arcangica signature sound to its fullest to introduce the listener to the EP perfectly. "Two Blocks Down" is awesome. The track is very single worthy and will be a fan favorite in no time. "Mannequin" puts its heart on its sleeve with its Alternative Rock stylings but there's a touch of Grunge and even Post Hardcore within it. There's a lot to like on the track and it really shones bright with its intensity. "Save You" has more modern Linkin Park vibes to it. The track has ballad like tendencies until later on when it explodes with emotion. "Ruin" has an early 2000's/Trustcompany feel to it. The riffs hit hard and the catchy Alternative Rock sound is top notch in its approach. "Paralysis" caps off the EP with a Post Hardcore like vibe. The twists and turns, upbeat aggression and melodies make it a closer to remember.
Verdict:
Arcantica look to set the Rock scene ablaze with their newest EP.
