The intro almost reminds me of outer space, and the twinkling stars in the sky. I really dig this track because it is much lighter than the rest of the record. This section of the album contains yet another standout track, as well as my personal favorite, “Motion Sickness”.
In wrapping up the album, Dissonants evokes a variety of emotions. I really enjoyed this section because it showcased lighter vocals, and stronger guitar features. “Division Symbols”, “Stillwater”, and “Momentary”are personal favorites on the album, as they leave me with a feeling of triumph. I found myself in awe of the overall instrumentation of each song. The midsection of the album is really what kept my interest. This tune explores letting go of the distractions of the world in order to just be. A standout track towards the beginning, has to be “Colourblind”. 12-song record are perfect to review because, if they are cohesive, you have a strong sense of a beginning, middle, and end. I must say, Hands Like Houses may just be on the road to gaining another fan.įirst things first- a 12-song album. However, I decided that it deserved another listen. I was questioning if I was going to be able to write a constructive review of this album. Though I am a fan of rock music, when it gets to be borderline screamo I will most like turn it off. I am going to be honest, upon first listen, I was not a fan of Dissonants.
Hands Like Houses is not a band that I would typically put on a playlist. Upon receiving this album as an assignment, I had to admit I was a bit weary.
