The third single from their album Hope, ‘The Storm’ fits the mould of emo-rock quite well, though with a memorable guitar riff and thoughtful lyrics replacing any shouting down the microphone: a sort of grown-up Fightstar with better material, though sadly it doesn’t really distinguish itself from similar songs in its genre to really stand out as anything special.
As a song it is perfectly listenable as an example of turn up the volume loud rock, just nothing that wanders off from the well trodden path of modern rock.
