Free legal albums!

The process for choosing the band and album to write my first review on this site about was a completely random one. It wasn’t until looking at a large image of the album cover that I noticed “LOOK OUT” was written in small letters. This is an inside joke, and approximatly 1-2 of you will see the humour in this.
Anyway, onto the musical side of things now- The Big Bang EP by Azoora consists of 6 songs. Well, 3 songs, but with 2 versions of each of them. The first 3 songs would be jammed somewhere in the acoustic-y folk rock genre…if such a genre exists.
The opening song, Cruise Control, is probably the standout track on the EP. Starting with soft, folky guitars and spoken lyrics, it builds up with the inclusion of some electronic-ish drums and a mighty catchy chorus.
The second song, Lying Back- Fire in Our Eyes is similar in format; in that it starts of soft and builds into another solid folk-rock song.
The final song of the first half of the EP, She’s Coming, is probably the weakest of the 3. But considering the praise i give to the first 2 songs, this doesn’t really mean much.

The second half of the EP is essentially a set of remixes of the first half. Well, sort of. The band have many tastes and ideas, and therefor deliberatly record 2 versions of their songs.
The 2nd half companion song to Cruise Control, Cruise Control Attacks!!!, is basically an electronic version, and is the strongest of these “2nd version” songs.

Overall, The Big Bang EP is sure to be an enjoyable addition to any music library.
