letlive. - Fake History

Rock Sound favourites finally release their third album in the UK, and it's been worth the wait...

Posted Monday, 11 April 2011 in

One of the most hotly tipped breakthrough bands for 2011, it’s taken LA quintet letlive. a while to really make their mark. Originally released last April in the States, their third album is now enjoying an official release with three extra tracks, and it’s a frenetic, hugely entertaining and inventive genre mash-up full of punk rock aggression and rock ‘n’ roll swagger that blends inventive chaos with a real ear for melody. Consistently thrilling and invigorating, ‘Fake History’ takes the best bits of everyone from Glassjaw to Deftones and Converge, and this is a phenomenal record that’s worthy of all praise.
