DARK AGES - Vicious Lie 7"

The DEBUT EP from Kansas City's Dark Ages! Continuing from where their killer 4 song demo (which also saw a pressing on vinyl) left off, this picks it up from point A and yet cover new ground at the same time. Its progressed a little but not to the point where its evil to punks. Its like its more refined and the band knows which direction to take this musically. Lyrically it tackles similar angry topics as the demo did-being pro anti-religion, questioning politics (NOT preaching) and also a song about trying to not think of everything in a negative way, to be positive for a change. It's kind of like stuff you've heard before but really we can't make comparisons to other bands with this record as they've developed a sound all their own but its clearly midwestern. All that matters is its just Dark Ages and this is far from boring retread HC/punk, has nice color covers.
