The Vaccines - Come Of Age (2012)

His story is crazy. The Vaccines founded the band in 2010, suddenly they signed to Columbia Records, released a debut album - "What Did You Expect From The ...?" - And only years after the end of 2011 had already eaten half the size singles world 'Post Break Up Sex', 'Norgaard' and 'Blow It Up'. So effective is the formula sound of London that after taking their first LP went straight for a second: an album called "Come of Age" which will be released tomorrow in Europe and the UK.
Unlike what is seen in their debut album, Young Justin's band this time wanted a record that accurately reflect the strength of their live energy. To get the frantic foursome locked himself in the studio with Ethan Johns (Ryan Adams, Laura Marling), producer Justin & Co. pushed to record all issues in the old way. You know: button "rec" tight and everyone playing and singing like crazy. The result of this imperfect but convulsive fabled experiment works in a "Come of Age" which together apparently improves on its predecessor.
And the surprise is that I've been with "Come of Age" has been capitalized. There is an aura sound, sixties soul and post-punkera appearance that all issues surrounding the compact. That with "What Did You Expect From ...?" Did not happen, the issues were excellent (undeniable!) But more than an LP like a disparate collection of singles. A clear example of this new situation? The established between 'I Always Knew' and 'All In Vein', both pieces appear to be carved on a pattern that leads directly to the heart more purely rock roller of yesteryear.
After several listeners feel that there are two songs that are above the rest. The first is 'Aftershave Ocean', a sinuous piece four minutes in which Freddie Cowan's guitar takes on a crucial and refreshing role. Then there's 'Bad Mood', probably more furiously cutting rocker Londoners have managed so far. Such is the emphasis of this savage cut the concert audience of Vaccines have already begun to "moshpits" to listen to the first verse of this song frantic.
Did you like "What Did You Expect From ...?"? Yeah? So please listen to "Come of Age". Perhaps individual parts are not as huge as the first LP but a collective level encourages dance album and brings a new sound wave as refreshing. That, at this point in 2012, it is an outrage. A surf!
