That aside this song has one of the catchiest choruses since Australia and once again a lyrically sound song.Īutumn Song 9.5/10 Favourite song of the album. It may be a bit of a petty issue but it constantly reminds me of the way old hymns would be named taking the first line as the songs title. This is the first of four consecutive songs (excluding Rendition which I've yet to hear) where the songs title is the starting lyric. The Second Great Depression 8.5/10 This song (fantastic as it is) starts my one big problem with the album. Great lyrics to the verses and a lovely melody throughout, but musically it felt mis-matched. Indian Summer 5/10 Seems to be the most over hyped song on the album so far, possibly because of it's simalarities to design with the bouncy 6/8 rhythm and the crunchy riffs into each line of the chorus. Only issue I have with this song is Nickys shout singing style and how much stress it sounds like he's putting his voice under singing those two line. I'm guessing that this tune is about Richey in the same vain as Nobody Loved You.
I haven't decided yet whether it's pretentious for the band to pay homage to themselves in the lyrics "You stole the sun, straight from my heart". Your Love Alone Is Not Enough 8/10 Great choice for a single, bouncy pop/rock. Suprisingly it was Seans playing that let the song down for me, the snare roll building up the chorus always makes me cringe when I hear it. Underdogs 6/10 Raw, punk and for those who haven't heard it, it's not as bad as a lot have been making out. Some of the best lyrics on the album too, referring to tigers as the militant forces (may be wrong but that's what I got from the song) and a great title for the album. Send Away The Tigers 7.5/10 It sounds like it could sit well on Generation Terrorists but lacks energy in the verses, however when the chorus kicks in James' voice soars, taking the song to the whole new level.
