Album Review: Drifter by Heartsounds

Great, Based on 2 Critics

Rock Sound - 90
Based on rating 9/10

Heartsounds' second record is a brilliant effort and universally adored in the RS office... Impressively, Heartsounds are two albums into their career, despite forming just over a year ago – and much like debut ‘Until We Surrender’, ‘Drifter’ is further demonstration of the band’s technical prowess. With vocalists / guitarists Ben Murray and Laura Nichol cutting their teeth in metallers Light This City, they’ve got the skill to layer classic 90s skate punk staples of duelled riffs and vocals, palm-muting and double-speed breakdowns into a thoroughly modern set of songs.

PopMatters - 60
Based on rating 6/10

Rock music is the source of so many offshoots that it’s often easy to forget how closely linked certain genres and subgenres are at the core. Only after sampling an extremely vast set of different rock-inspired styles does it become easier to recognize the similarities that exist among punk, alternative, metal, indie, and hardcore. These similarities are the reason why bands like Heartsounds exist.
