Alkaline Trio – Crimson – Review October 21, 2005 The performances, placement of hooks, and vocal phrasing are all blindingly confident. The band have learned to reach beyond the meat-n-potatoes of punky pop.
Sentenced – Crimson – Review April 1, 2000 Sentenced have found mournful ways to reconstitute sensibly-arranged power chord rock, even if they seem to make the same record over again.
