OH, SLEEPER – Son of the Morning

Posted in Albums, Reviews with tags on 09/08/2009 by inmystead

5 / 7

OH, SLEEPER has carved a name for themselves in the scene with the release of “WHEN I AM GOD” and now their follow up “SON OF THE MORNING” this fierce Texas quintet are set to take the hardcore scene by force.  Technical riffing and breakdowns make up the bulk of this release.  The music is brutal and inventive.  Intense yet subtle.  Songs like “The New Breed” and “World Without a Sun” will raise the bar for bands coming up and give the kids in the pit something to smile about.  The message is bold and clear and OH, SLEEPER is here to stay.
