Once you dry yourself off, the following tracks keep the beat up but let you have a bit of a breather from the opener’s intensity.

Album Review: The View - Cheeky For A Reason

Live Review: Home Brew, Sky'High, Fortafy, Provokal (feat. Dialekt), DJ Substance

If A Current Affair had better/any taste, they’d use this album as the soundtrack to one of their stories about disillusioned young people

Album Review: Friends - Manifest!
