Album Review: Plague Vendor - Free To Eat

Dylan Stewart

"I’m not sure how a band can get away with releasing an ‘album’ that doesn’t even make it to 18 minutes."




I'm not sure how a band can get away with releasing an 'album' that doesn't even make it to 18 minutes. Sure, the Californian band has crammed ten tracks in there, but there's just not enough time to sink your teeth into their throw-around punk songs. The worst part, though, is that what's made it onto the album is damn good; it gets you all riled up with fast-paced drums, juicy guitar licks and Stooges-inspired sound, then leaves you bloodied and wasted on the side of the road, wondering where you're gonna get your next fix.
