From the distorted speakers of Matt Lazenby:

The self-titled release from Montreal’s Reversing Falls is like the soundtrack to the best house party you’ve never been to. The album adds up to just under 30 minutes of immediate rock ’n’ roll: hooks, anthemic choruses, and wry odes to teen angst (“Pyramid Scheme”: “You’ve got a teenage heart, I can hear it in the hallway / It runs at 90 beats per minute”). Although released a while back, it’s still helping the band gain plaudits across the country, and it’s not hard to see why. Frontman Tyler Crawford refers to their sound as “riff wave”, which makes sense listening to the wall-to-wall power chords and distortion that texture songs such as “Is This Thing On?”, “Shitty Birthday”, and “Curse This Place”. Add some powerhouse percussion (courtesy of Unicorns/Islands’ Jamie Thompson, plus a good old fashioned drum machine), and the production of Mark Lawson (Colin Stetson, The Luyas, et al), and it’s clear Reversing Falls have something special going on here.
