Friendship Moves - Eli Sunday

Friendship Moves
Post hardcore

Track list: 
1. Plainview
2. Living With Brucie
3. I Like It, I Do. But I'm Really Concerned About Dying in the Fire
4. Banging in Little Rock
5. Flannel Shirt Blues

Friendship Moves are not cool metal dudes (thank God), although I don't think anyone would be fooled into thinking they are. This debut release by Colchester, Essex's loose post hardcore band starts with a slow clean section that wouldn't sound out of place in a post rock setting (as most their songs start, with the exception of Banging in Little Rock, which starts with feedback. I love feedback), before going into a shouting frenzy amongst smooth tempos and shoegazingly thunderous guitars. So, really, it's hard to imagine that they could be cool metal dudes at all.

It's hard to find words, and I'm not sure why, but I enjoy this. A lot.
