Album Review: Lionizer - Be Alone

Dearna Mulvaney

"If records by Against Me! and Courtney Barnett procreated this EP would be the result."

More Lionizer Lionizer Profile

Lionizer's second EP is a mix of riot grrrl punk lyrics and catchy, make-ya-wanna-dance indie beats.

If records by Against Me! and Courtney Barnett procreated this EP would be the result. Be Alone explores all the ups and downs of relationship breakups, singles Bleach and Every Action, Every Consequence are brash and up in your face, Homeless provides a soft moment of reflection; the latter's final line, "I guess if home is where your heart lies/I'm homeless," lingers before hitting you hard in the chest. Guaranteed to make even the most hardcore punk smile and groove along.
