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.
