Conditions has always been a band I've enjoyed. Ever since I stumbled upon them at a show at ICC Church in Burlington they've had insanely catchy music as well as an amazing live show. I recently gave the new EP You Are Forgotten a listen and man have I been missing out on this bands new material.
Firstly Brandon Roundtree's vocals have always stuck out, He hits his high notes amazing live and has great melodies. Its no surprise that on their latest effort that his vocals are once again flawless. The band also does their part to make sure this release is flawless providing great musician ship and some of the catchiest melodies you'll ever hear.
Lyrically this album has to be my favorite of Conditions release's. Lead single Man To Mannequin has one of the most memorable chorus's of all time as well as my personal favorite Citizen having lyrics that will be stuck in your head forever.
To be honest, there is no filler track or bad song on the album at all, While it is only a digital release and very short at 6 songs. It is still one of the best albums released this year.
The only real downfall about this great release is that its to short, and seeing as how it is Digital only I wont be able to get the crystal clear CD sound in my car. These guys are amazingly still unsigned. Tommy Tragic where are you this band is the next big thing. So if you have an extra $5.94 lying around go buy this off itunes or amazon mp3, or give the guys a listen on myspace, you'll be glad you did. Speaking of 5's what does this great release get as a rating, a well deserved 5/5. So check out the single below and add these guys.
I got to here these songs live while I was on Warped Tour and I highly urge you to go see them on their current tour with Go Crash Audio, you wont be disappointed.
Thanks for reading,
Codie.
