A distorted whirlpool that bathes the sound of Green Day, My Chemical Romance and Hot Hot Heat, produces fleshy and rhythmically trundling emo-punk with pop spurts that is fresh and piercing.
The molten tone and pace is set by the fierce and consistent drum beats of Aaron Solowoniuk and, then the ruggedly commanding vocals of Ben Kowalewicz do the rest.
Billy Talent have the vibrancy to get the kids moving and the depth and brooding nature, to stoke the cynical connoisseurs out their hazy bubble.
