Review: February 20th, 2009
This new 7" from Richmond's Cloak/Dagger is short but pretty damn good. Their debut album "We Are" got some awesome well deserved reviews, and I had it in my top 10 records of 2007, so I was really excited when I got this one sent to me.
There's only two cuts on "Untitled" but they're just ass kick-ass as one would expect. Both "Surf Song" and "Concentration Camps" are down-tempo tunes but without losing that raw aggressive edge I associate with the band. But - while the first song goes on in clear Cloak/Dagger tradition I'm not so sure I would call the latter an aggressive tune, at least not lyric-wise. I get the feeling it's somewhat of a love-song. I'm not entirely sure though, since I don't have the lyrics at hand. But from what I hear it's about going loco when you're around somebody you really dig, which off course is nice.
Cloak/Dagger still kick ass, check this one out.
