All Get Out—Nobody Likes A Quitter—Blue Vinyl LP Record—

For fans of Hot Water Music, Great Big Pile of Leaves, Dryjacket, Microwave

___________________________________________

If you're a fan of Manchester Orchestra, then you'd know about All Get Out. Nathan Hussey's been the engine of the project which really has taken lead from Andy Hull (Manchester Orchestra) in terms of writing style and musical delivery. But over the last few years AGO has broken out more and evolved into their own sound. Still similar to Hull's Orchestra but with a more clearly-defined identity. Their last EP, Movement, was really solid and teased what Nobody Likes A Quitter would shape to be. And it's great to see that it was all about hard-rock with a southern drawl that can be described as potential and promise fulfilled.

Throughout their musical career, it's been tough for AGO to not be associated with Manchester Orchestra and again, it pops up here, whether you like it or not. I'm in the former, as you can tell. On last year's EP, "Balance" was a song that felt straight off MO's Cope and it was something, as much as it felt like it would take away from their identity, I hoped would spill over on this record. It does but in subtle doses. Songs like "Room To Talk" and "Home" are great hard-rock examples of this but also, examples of songs that draw comparisons to another band AGO are usually compared to -- Brand New. Hussey's delivery as powerful as ever on the mic with some of his strongest songwriting to date, all lending credence to these parallels. I'll admit though that the record's much more polished which takes away from the rougher edges of old. Nonetheless, most of the tracks are so fluid and a great evolution from The Season.

From the quiet-loud dynamics of "Whatever" to the hazy acoustic of "Empty Nest" to the impassioned "ATX" -- which really throws back to when they wowed me in 2011, you've got diversity in spades. These all show the band's clever evolution and recovery over losing talented guitarist, Mel Washington, a couple years ago. The latter track's where they shine best, cutting loose and really breaking free. It's a big step forward for a band that deserves more praise. 

 All records handled meticulously and carefully packaged for zero effects during shipping. See feedback for any clarification on packaging and speed of delivery.
