The Forecast
“In the Shadows of Two Gunmen”
Victory

The Forecast play emo rock that is uptempo enough to not be boring, but there’s nothing really new here either. “West Coast” features a great exchange between the female and male singers, backed with some cool choir singing, and “And We All Return to Our Roots” is catchy enough to be a Weston cover, but most of the tunes become stale after a bit.

Musically, the band is on point. They rocks enough to not be total pussies, but the vocal range of singer Dustin Addis sounds like it’s stuck in a motion city soundtrack. Seriously, co-singer Shannon Burns is the best thing on this record, and here’s hoping that she gets sick of these losers and starts her own punk band.

Doesn’t Rock l Kinda Rocks l Rocks l Really Rocks
