Un:Armed, for everyone who doesn’t know, is a band of California. This band has but out a few independent records, one of
which is this one, and have pretty good for themselves. In the latest EP they have released, as I just call it EP, has a low
key feel to it. In “Talk Talk” they tend to repeat a little too much to my liking. “This Nightmare,”
is a really good song that offers hints of the bands potential. Some parts although has a distant sound to them. The third
track, “Devils never sleep,” is an okay song. “Go Ahead” has very weird lyrics, but are sang to really
outstandingly clear vocals. The best song on the EP “Home to You” has a sweet beginning and even cooler music
throughout. The sixth and final track on the album “Everything You Said” show the upbeat drums that I was hollering
for the whole time.
This EP has good and bad on it. It shows great potential and eventual greatness. I hope when they read this that they
will take it a constructive criticism. I believe that with a few adjustments that they will leap from independent, un-singed
ranking to an Indie to even major deal touring the world….let me and you be the first ones to jump on their bandwagon.
Anyways, they do need to be a little louder, their stuff is good, don’t get me wrong but that tweak will do wonders
for their music. So L.A. natives, go support this local band
and they rest of us, go look them up!
