Music Critic Score
How the Music Critic Score works
In the early 21st century, all it took was some retro '80 designer threads to be considered "new wave revivalists. " And like any rock music movement, there are always going to be artists that get by due to a keen fashion sense (which strangely, are usually the acts that conquer the charts), while others actually have something to say musically. The Texas quintet I Love You But I've Chosen Darkness is of the latter variety -- debuting in 2003 with a self-titled EP, and finally returning in 2006 with the full-length, Fear Is on Our Side.
