Bangor-based alt-rock outfit Dying Habit have returned sensationally with their highly anticipated album, "There Is No Sky". To daily readers of this site, their name is already known, but since we posted that article, a whole new LP has been written and released.
... this is the kind of album that earns repeat listens and will ultimately reward the band.
Without any faffing about, we're kicking right into the album, and it seems the Welsh band are not holding back much either. The first song on the record, "Everything In Reverse", is a wash with emotive vocals, guitar-melting guitar and a tempo that can get you moving along with appreciation.
"Bow" comes next and keeps that energy from the first cut, but it's a bit less direct, and it reminded me a lot of that late 90s rock sound that was all over the UK. The middle core of the album is chock full of hits, with the Biffy Clyro sounding cut "Run To The Beehive" to a slow-burning rock song "The Face We Feel".
"There Is No Sky" is a powerful, repeat-worthy alt-rock album that confirms Dying Habit's growth in their scene, with ambitions to emerge well beyond.
