this band suckz ... nothing original
Classic Crime, The
Seattle Sessions (EP)
I should probably go on record as saying that I didn’t care for The Classic Crime’s debut, Albatross. Not for lack of trying. I’m a fan of the hardcore-lite/punk/indie rock genre in which these guys are centered. There wasn’t anything horribly off about their debut. It was just … there. It was adequate, fairly well-done. But that was it. Nothing about it really stood out. So, when I got this new acoustic EP, I thought ‘Hey, maybe things have changed ... maybe this will be more compelling.’ Not really. Once again, while the tunes are fairly pleasing and nicely played, they’re forgotten as soon as they’re over. If you dig their sauce, you’ll probably love this. But if not, skip it.
