Fossil Youth – A Glimpse Of Self Joy

7

Here’s an album that slips down easily, which is quite strange because it’s emotionally heavy and sometimes really intoxicating. Perhaps the really standout of this effort is the consistent storytelling mode, where the songs sequential order adds a detailed and real perception of Scottie Noonan (singer/guitarist) cohesive story. Recorded with producer Jay Maas (Citizen, The Menzingers, Somos), the Enid, Oklahoma quartet list plenty of influences, there’s a bit of Citizen and Turnover all over the place and Taking Back Sunday is clearly their closest reference point. A Glimpse Of Self Joy is a strong and genuine honest effort. Well done, guys!
