专辑介绍

by Stewart Mason

If this is these kids' idea of excessive celebration, one cringes to imagine their idea of angst. Autonym's excellently titled debut Shall We Skip to Excessive Celebration? is a post-hardcore blur of exceedingly short (exactly one track of 11 breaks the two-minute mark) and tightly-wound blurts of anguished screamo vocals, fractured rhythms and unison guitar riffs. It's not all the same: "Battered Wife Syndrome" actually sounds weirdly like the Fall thanks to its atypically dance-oriented bass riff and unexpectedly catchy hooks underneath the usual howled vocals, "The Dalits" recalls vintage hardcore à la Youth Brigade, and in between the songs, there are occasional brief interludes of music-box-like keyboard solos. But it's all, shall we say, of a piece. Those with a lack of affinity for post-hardcore should stay far away, but Shall We Skip to Excessive Celebration? is a surprisingly likeable entry in an often irritating and whiny genre.
