Synopsis

Album Description

"I was Trying To Describe You To Someone" is the career-defining album from Long Island's Crime in Stereo. The follow-up to the critically acclaimed album "Is Dead," Which was hailed by Fans as well as critics as "The shape of Hardcore to Come...some of the most ambitious , stunning songwriting melodic hardcore has witnessed in years." "I Was Trying to Describe You To Someone" is another collaboration between the band and producer Extraordinaire Mike Sapone (Brand New, Taking Back Sunday). The pressure to surpass the standard set by "Is Dead" was great but Crime in Stereo's hard work alongside Sapone has done more to surpass their previous efforts. "I Was Trying to Describe you to someone" Clearly transcends anything the band has released to date.

A must have!

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This record is incredible. According to the band, the albums is about a relationship dissolving, and because the writer seemed to have written these songs in order to make himself, and others, feel better, many of the songs have this heartwarming feel to them, as corny as it sounds. The song "Type One" perfectly exemplifies this feeling. Other standout tracks include "Drugwolf," "I Am Everything I Am Not," and "I Cannot Answer You Tonight." If you loved the way the band experimented with different sounds, song structures, and time signatures on their previous album, ...Is Dead, you will certainly love this one, as they delve further into experimentation and pushing the realm of sound that is supposed to be modern hardcore. Take the album opener, "Queue Moderns," for example. It starts off with what sounds like all the band members harmonizing a couple lines repeatedly, resulting in something that reminds me of monk chants, and then it breaks into the fastest (albiet brief) part on the record! There are a lot of bands out right now trying to do the melodic, progressive hardcore thing that Crime in Stereo plays with, but this record blows them out of the water."
