Review by: Andy Malcolm
If you are like me, and are forever waiting around for new bands to take a crack at the indie/emo sound, then you are a bit of dork to be honest. Luckily, our patience is occasionally rewarded when out of the blue a band like Action and Action comes up with a song like Nineteen Twenty Two on this here 7″. This song is an absolute belter fueled by guitars that utilise the midwestmo twinkle and the crunching drive that you generally associate with the style. There’s even a point in the vocals where it sounds like a Lovesick song. The music spirals off in various directions which is often how more recent bands interpret this sound but unlike others who inject way too much variation and daft jazz into one song it hangs together as a cohesive and highly enjoyable track. I particularly love the racing guitars at the end that make me recall the Kossabone Red.
