Earl Grey


Earl Grey

The Times You Cross my Mind

Midsummer Records


Mönchengladbach early twentysomethings Earl Grey are definitely worthy of your ears for this, their third EP The Times You Cross My Mind.  Formed only a couple of years ago they combine punk vocals (in English) with a maturity of melody or aggression on a whim.  Over thirteen minutes and five tracks, they display the confidence and swagger gained from their extensive touring schedules.  From the first bars of 1.37 minute opener Nothing (that is anything but!), to the closing melodic fadeout of the last track Hollow, I enjoyed the energy and musical flair of each post-hardcore track. The strong production of their sound makes you sit up and listen.  Catch them early in their career as they are destined for stardom.
