Indecisive Crisis - Face Invaders (EP)

A journalist once wrote about The Clash that ‘they are one of those garage bands, who should be returned swiftly to the garage.’ In response, The Clash wrote Garageland, as well as several albums of some of the best music ever recorded. The raw sound, songs that sound jammed rather than written, it all makes up for some of the most powerful sounds to enjoy.
            Listening to Indecisive Crisis is just a pleasurable experience. The funky bass lines, experimental overdriven guitar; it all adds up to a great sound which you can just absorb through every part of your body. Their EP Face Invaders contains four tracks of rocking goodness, tight drums and the vocals touching in above everything else is wonderful. This sound could be at home in a pub, a spanking state of the art venue, or even just a field somewhere!
            Personally I enjoy ‘Keep Your Mind At Ease’. Funky from the outset, the bass plays an important role in this song, with a wonderful line through the verses. The guitar and drums playing off beat rhythms gives it that great edge, and kicking into the heavier chorus the song really grasps you. The vocals are consistently great through the whole EP; there’s great soul in her voice, but it isn’t in your face which suits the music perfectly. The punchy ‘Slim Pickings’ is a fantastic listen too, with a timing change that gets you up out of your seat to party.
            Overall, Indecisive Crisis has created a great sound; raw, passionate, funky and available to a wide range of listeners. Garage rock is alive and well, and just as we have seen before, bands ‘from the garage’ can really make an impact on the music scene. IC are treading the same path as some of their influences in regards to the songs they’re writing, and if there is anything this writer hopes, it’s that other bands will open the shutter and step out into the world.
