Album Reviews

The Waiting Game kept us waiting long enough and finally released their debut EP, “Bend Or Break”. This five-piece - featuring former members of Campus, Get Off My Shoes and The Violet - have steadily been building a name for themselves since 2012 and headed for the studio in between playing festivals and opening for bands like Panic! At The Disco.

No no, don’t run away! They don’t sound like Panic At The Disco, they just played a show with them. The songs that make up “Bend Or Break” are a solid mix of punk and emo and see these dudes embracing their influences, which range from the Get Up Kids to Taking Back Sunday and early Brand New. Big names, sure. But the seven songs that make up “Bend Or Break” are solid with plenty of catchy hooks and even more energy. The dual vocals simply help seal the deal.
