Person L is far, far removed from the band that frontman

Vasoli once helmed. ‘The Positives’ is much more prog-rock than pop-punk, and the intricacy of ‘Hole In The Head’ and ‘Untitled’ shows this is a band capable of everything from grandiose soundscapes to gritty rock ‘n’ roll anthems. At times it makes for awkward listening (
Vasoli’s delivery feels forced in places), but overall it’s an engaging record that’s a hell of a lot more than just a bunch of three chord wonders.
