Echo and the bunnymen: Crocodiles

Hello Everyone and welcome to my new blog. I have managed to nag my parents to the point where they had to get me record player. Every week or every other day I will get one of their records and bung it in, and post a review of it on here. If there are any records you would like me to buy, then please tell drop me a message. The first review if of Echo and the bunnymens crocodiles, which I am listening to as we speak.

To start off with it is quite atmospeheric, the keyboards collide with the guitars nicely and it makes adds a nice admosphere to the record. After the build up, it goes into the incredibly catcy "Going Up". The guitar riffs are very sick, and it does begin to sound like you are listening to a very authentic post punk record. Track 2 stares are stairs really shows their talents, again the riff is very catchy and the atmosphere of the record genuinely manages to hold itself out for the entire album. Pride is a brilliant track, and the follow up Monkeys really shows their lyicall talents. The dark atomosphere I was talking about manages to hold itself throughout the entirety of the album. It's guitar riffs are incredibly catchy and it does show how much talent liverpudlian musicians have (bar the wombats obviously). When it isn't energetic it's intelligent and dynamic. The album has a really nice post punk edge to it which I love, and I can't wait till I try out Ocean Rain.
