Artist: Bravo Romeo Bravo
Album: Twilight
Label: Unsigned
Rating:

Given the opportunity to use only one word to describe Bravo Romeo Bravo’s lyrics it would probably be “wow”, but using one word to describe their new EP, Twilight, it would be “unoriginal”. Twilight starts off with the track Excess Progress which contains real powerful lyrics. Simple yet thought provoking, lines like “Where do I stand if there is nothing but breaking ground” is pretty deep. The song is awesome, unfortunately Excess Progress is the strongest track on the album and each song after that just doesn’t compare.

Bravo Romeo Bravo’s lyrics set them apart from other bands, but that’s really the only aspect setting them apart. The vocals are extremely solid, but the music is nothing spectacular. Don’t get me wrong, there is no denying that these guys do have talent, but this sound can be found in a lot of currently popular bands as well as those who are trying to break into the scene. I just don’t see these guys breaking any musical ground with Twilight.

On a more positive note, Bravo Romeo Bravo formed only two years ago and have acquired a decent sized fan base in a short period of time. I think they have real potential, but need some time to grow and develop their sound into something a little more unique.

Stand Out Tracks:

“Excess Progress”
