Comment: screamo, indeed, but it is not screamo as music style at all represented within the course of 12 tracks. Maybe it is a screamo of desperation in soul being induced by urge for love and intense dislocated longing. It may be because the Canadian troubadour continues stubbornly walking the same path he has done so far. And that's good because I could not imagine him by getting no hold of DIY-tinged soul being saturated with honest feel and sheer depth. I can remember him for performing at a small indie festival in a small town at the beginning of the 10s, the Sun had already set down while he was performing in front of approximately 2500 attendants being barefoot and surrounded by little flying vampires. Yeah, it was an astounding performance, it was the first class entertainment by him.
While he does not use much instruments and magniloquent gizmos to bring a listener the impact for any element represented here is thoroughly accentuated and emotively saturated. It may represent a screamo in his soul but it involves a lighthearted cinematic feel to solace me as a listener. Top tier which as usual as Sean Nicholas Savage used to be is related to an imprint called Arbutus Records.
