The Blackout - ‘The Best In Town’

Rating: 8

The sophomore full-length from Welsh upstarts The Blackout is sharp, it’s focused and it hits pressure points from all angles. Tighter than ever, the sextet up the ante with solid efforts and unrivalled energy. Sinking razor-sharp hooks deep into your skin, they pound out potential single after single, with growling attitude, slick melodies and punchy choruses. Newly signed to Epitaph, along with current UK darlings The Ghost Of A Thousand and Bring Me The Horizon, with ‘The Best In Town’ The Blackout look set to fully conquer their niche and take things further than ever.
